Price of the Honda Pilot: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2009 4dr SUV 250-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic FWD		 I was able to negotiate a very reasonable price on this pilot. This made the payments very reasonable compared to many comperable SUVs.
2008 4dr SUV 244-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD		 with the knee jerk reaction against SUVs in US made many SUVs affordable. Pilot was unfairly clubbed clubbed with all the gas guzzlers and that made some very good deals possible.
2007 4dr SUV 244-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed automatic AWD		 I paid about $2,000.00 less for the Pilot than a comparably equipped Highlander.
