2008 Honda Pilot SE review from North America
"Honda = standard safety, Ford/GM = start hunting for one with side airbags"
General comments?
Great lease prices, dealer willing to pay off my old Acura lease. It's just like driving my 06 MDX, but at half the monthly payment. And 100 times better than my Explorer.
Having 4 teenagers, the standard safety equipment was the selling point. Which GM and Ford do not put standard, and makes it pain to find a color with options you want.
