Pilot - good years & Towing?
I've read the Honda Pilot can tow, with the proper coolers, 4500lbs.
Does it matter what model Pilot I find on the used car lots as far as Reliability and towing and MPG? What mpg is typical city/highway/combined? One person I asked said he gets 18 city, 24 highway on a 2004 model. I have a budget of around $17000 us to spend, so would probably be looking for an older vehicle. I see leasing deals on the 2005, but I don't really want a new car. I am selling my f150 4x4 and plow & I figure the Pilot can tow my boat Does anyone make a reasonably priced personal snow plow for the pilot? |

The Pilot first appeared for 2003, so I doubt you could find a used Pilot for under $17K unless it has high mileage. You may want to look at an older Toyota 4Runner if you want something in that price range. |

you are correct - most of the 2003 models are $25k+

The search function in the forum will bring up a fair number of threads on it... -- Mike Iglesias Email: University of California, Irvine phone: 949-824-6926 Network & Academic Computing Services FAX: 949-824-2069 |
