How's the fuel injector failures and headunit issues with the 2016+ Pilots? I bet they are sorted in newer ones? As for my buddy's Pilot, after the warranty work done by the dealer its all good. Wonder the fuel injector failures are due to the design vs some manufacturers like Toyota use port injection + direct injection.
As for the 9 speed issues I only see older videos of Pilot and MDX and no new issues. Its so much better that Honda use N/A engine with 9spd vs a Turbo engine + CVT on CR-V, Civic, Accord.

I was looking at Highlander/Pilot/cx9 but ended up getting Pathfinder. is ok, in the rear 3rd row seats but i should of gotten the Pilot but they didn't offer any good deals. I would love to get the pilot but 5k premium was not worth it in my eyes. However if money is no object, get the MDX for sportiness. I have to agree with Alex but it'll be 55k for that car. The Pilot look better improve soon for Highlander will take up to 30% of the buyers.

I drove 11 different 3 row suvs. After driving the 2020 pilot ex-l I didn t consider a higher trim at all. And this was after owning two recent Honda CRVs. The pilot was just too much like the CRVs. I thought it had a lot of road noise for its size and the car was simply outdated. I chose the 2020 Highlander Limited. Well pleased for the first 4, 000 miles. Gas mileage is improving with each tank and seats are really comfortable on long trips.

I m surprised you did an in-depth comparison of the pilot vs mdx but not Highlander vs MDX.
Also you mentioned that in your last pilot video, the ivtm4 and SH AWD don t share the same behavior. The pilot is less aggressive in giving it a rear bias vs the mdx

Alex, Do people driving 85 mph really care about fuel economy? For the record, the Pilot's tow rating is the same as the Highlander #Hybrid that beats it by 12-15 mpg. BTW Does anyone know the cost of replacing the old-fashioned timing belt on a Honda V6?

Crazy with Toyota, Hyundai, Kia and Ford releasing such great, brand-new 3 row SUVs that Honda continues to produce this one.
I'm sure the next Pilot will be great but right now it's falling behind.

I just bought a 2020 Honda Pilot EX-L and got a SMOCKING DEAL (5K Off the sticker) while the Kia and Hyundai dealers were asking 4-7 k MARK UP. The whole family LOVES IT. It is my 3rd Honda

Acura seems fine 2020 MDX 9 spd. I also drove FCA mini van and it was lousy. Always felt like shifting to higher lugging gear for economy. Felt like it be fine with more powerful motor.

Do you know if the Passport will remain the same as well for 2021? Was hoping for brake hold to be added. I will not but a vehicle without brake hold.
