I hope you are enjoying your new vehicle. I retired from the plant that builds these in Lincoln, AL and I'd like to personally thank you for buying the Pilot. One of my last major tasks was doing the plant side accounting for the launch of this body style. The groundwork for this started years ago and Honda spent a boatload of money to expand the plant and put in new equipment to handle the new heavier chassis. I don't know how many $1mil+ budget applications I reviewed for plant and equipment. I wish they would re-start the plant tours so you could see things in motion.
Just bought a 2025 modern steele metallic black edition..it was my dream car ive always wanted. Drove an accord for 15 yrs so it was time for an upgrade!!!
Honestly you can't go wrong with either Honda or Toyota. Both will outlast most people. Really the biggest difference between the Pilot and the Highlander is the V6 compared to the Highlanders 4cyl, yeah they dropped the V6 a couple years ago. Congrats.
I am in market right now. the Highlander was my first choice until I found out that Toyota want cheap and downgraded the engine to 4ccyl turbo. I am getting a Pilot too.
While working at Honda as a technician, I buy the Pilot Black Edition 2022 AWD. I like to keep it clean so every week I hand washed twice a week. Yeah that could be too much for it but that just me. Especially bcuz the color is black and is a color that I have to keep it clean. Now it has 30,000 miles and the transmission started to lack. Everytime I make a stop and hit the gas pedal, it start thinking on the first gear for about 5 seconds. If I make a right turn it also start thinking on the speed. As a technician I try looking for any updates or bulletin to see if there any recall or campaign for the Transmission but there is nothing. I do my oil changes exactly at every 5,000 miles and the tire rotation, transmission fluid exchange, differential, transfer case and throttle service with injectors cleaning every 10,000. I remember that the Pilots 2016 through 2019 have the same issue when they got to the 20,000 miles and we change the transmission solenoids. Now talking about the difference with the 2022 and 2023 I don't think the first sun roof opens up. That part I don't like it. The other think I don't like is the TV. The 2023 It doesn't come with TV no more. Everything else is the same. All it change is the exterior how it looks on the front more like a square and the 2022 the front goes a little bit down shape. Is a good Honda Pilot tho. But I will wait and see if the 2026 comes in a better shape and upgraded.
High demand for used vehicles getting top value for our trade in and abundance of 2024/2025 new vehciles on hand. Depreciation happens on every vehicle with use, the numbers made since to us to swap & get a brand new warranty simply paying the difference.
@@AdventureIsOutThere You do you, but you still lost thousands of dollars to buy the exact same vehicle. Honda's rarely have large issues, so losing thousands of dollars doesn't justify extending a warranty. A new engine is $3500.
We owned our 2023 that we traded in & just paid the difference. They had inventory they needed to move & looking to expand used inventory. The numbers made since once we negotiated & hit the reset button on warranty & free maintenance. I’m still rocking my 2008 paid for in cash Toyota Tundra.
My Husband and I Had one and Loved it. The only thing about them Unless they have changed Transmissions. They go out !! Our went out within 7 months then again 2 1/2 years later. But we Loved ours.
As a 2023 Toyota Camry Owner. I absolutely Love❤️ the Honda Pilot. This exterior color Gray is one of my favorite color on the Honda Pilot. The interior color Black I Love It. Of course I'm going to eat in my car. I can always clean it up. Congratulations👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 On your new 2025 Honda Pilot.
I have a 2008 Toyota Tundra truck that runs great. We have run the numbers of holding a car for a long time & repairing it vs having one under warranty & trading it in while it has greater value (2-3years old). The numbers make sense for us always under warranty, free maintenance & peace of mind of having my wife travel in the safest/most reliable vehicle possible. I used to listen to Dave Ramsey a lot & used to agree with him about ONLY owning a used vehicle. I have since changed my opinion that there is value in having a reliable vehicle under warranty. I would agree with him that you should pay cash & not buy a vehicle outside your budget.
@@AdventureIsOutThereyeah, but Hondas last forever. Our 2016 Pilot has 180,000 miles and has pretty much been flawless. You just wanted the shiny new toy. It’s okay to admit it.
When you trade in your vehicle that often you can save money on the extend warranties. Probably save around 6 to 8 thousand on them. No need to buy them if you don't have the car very long. And if you get the complimentary 2 year maintenance you save on that as well. Vehicle also doesn't depreciate that much in 2 years. As long as you can afford to buy it out right or a large down payment, by the time you buy the next one you won't owe much at all on the new one. Also wanted to know what microphones you use?
Love the new Pilot and the way you all surprised your kids. That new car smell would give it away. Thank you for highlighting the Rusty Wallace Dealership. He was my favorite driver when he was racing. I have the 2023 Honda CRV it is the redesign. I had ordered mine before they were arriving to lots back in October of 2022.
Love it! The sliding second seat gave me flashbacks to my old mini, same action how folks got in the back. And nobody liked sitting back there. 😂. God bless your new vehicle!
Sorry to burst your bubble lady. What you did, makes absolutely zero financial sense. That dealership must love you though. But hey, it’s your money to burn. Nice car, enjoy it.
With leasing I think you only pay sales tax on (basically) whatever the depreciation would be. Here in California buying a new car every 3 years and paying the sales tax on full price would………suck. ☺️
Just hit an ELK, ALL CRASH MITIGATION SYSTEMS FAILED - Even my old Kia Niro would had at least applied the Brakes - This 2025 Pilot is my most disappointing Honda - Never Again !! UNSAFE .
Although I have absolutely nothing whatsoever against... well....any Japanese (or other foreign) made car.... I'm partial to Nissan. I've owned several over the years with my first being a 1981 Datsun 310 GX and my current, a 2014 Murano. You honestly can't go wrong with a Honda, Toyota, Nissan etc. Very nice car and congrats on your new purchase! God bless! ~ Scott 💙🙏🏼
Love your new car , my father bought my stepmom one about 5 years ago still looks new and lots of room, how is your garden doing , hope you do more videos on the garden thanks guys stay cool and God Bless
You'll still lose money upgrading every 3 years, but it will always be under warranty! 😂 sure better have more hp, info system, style, comfort n mpg. 😅 Dont fall for this green new deal plug in bs. Batteries are the most environmentally unsafe thing you could imagine! I challenge anyone to say they are not!
I think most people aren't realistically living like this. My best friends husband is a doctor, and they aren't trading in a 2 year old car for a brand spanking new one. They are out of debt, etc. But not living it up like this.
Why would you need a 2025, when you had a 2023? We are still driving a 2006 Toyota Sienna, almost 250k miles. We are going to replace it with a brand new one this year. But it's great not having a payment.
And what do you have to do once those 15-20years are up & one is doing lots of repairs constantly? Eventually fork out a big chunk of change to get a new car. Or you can just pay a little bit every 3 years & always be under warranty. Much like the iphone, people would say they are still rocking their iPhone 11 and see no reason to upgrade. Whereas the phone we use is a great tool & will upgrade our 15's the new iPhone 16's when it comes out this fall. If someeone is happy with their older car or phone and it does the job for them, great! If someone has the means & desire to pay the difference to upgrade something, great!

I can't believe you traded like for like. Seems like a lot of work to go through just for lower miles, when the trade it was still well within warranty.
You said that you were leaving in the description, where to buy on Amazon, the head rest clamps for the kids to use with their phones or ipads, but I don't see it here.
As long as you're not in debt and financial secure it shouldn't matter if you trade in your car every 2 to 3 years. But the new car smell is very toxic to your health. There's formaldehyde and benzene and other carcinogens in new car smell used in the plastics.
@@AdventureIsOutThereWell, Honda did reveal the 2026 Honda Passport, an all new generation of it. But, it’s just a front grill only and not the entire thing. Ridgeline might also use the new pilot chassis.
Doesent the dealer rip you off everytine you trade in a car or are you ok with ut? I had got a 23crv last year and my gosh i felt ripped off and it was a horrible experience. Besides to be honest i felt that paying 40k otd for a jew was was not worth it. I had an older cev 2012 and it was great too the only major difference in a new car is the safety features and the adaptive cruise control and sone small tid bits other than that its pretty much rhe same.

one thing is very disappointed in 6-ciilider Hondas and acuras they still can NOT get rid of the silly timing belt and put timing chain instead.
Before I retired I worked at JCI/ADIENT and they made seat tracks for Honda Pilot. The seat tracks are very heavy when you lift them all day.

@@AdventureIsOutThereCheck the IIHS Crash Test Rating unless I misunderstood the 2025 Crash Rating may be better in 2nd Row than 2023-2024.
It's so ugly but at the same time it's got a reliable V6 and a real transmission. So I can't fault anyone for buying it.
