What about the Toyota rav4? Great SUV.
Who’s wrong if they stick with china?
Lexus RX350 is over 40K.
Wife had a RAV4 for a loner while her Subaru Crosstrek was in the body shop for a month after somebody ran into her. She didn't like the way it drove. Although the seats were a little more comfortable than her Subaru, I thought it was excessive legroom in the front and the cargo area wasn't much more than her Subaru. When I drive my pick up and my cars, I have the seats all the way back and all the way up. The ride was much rougher than her Subaru. I never got used to the wife's transmission because of the CVT but the transmission in the RAV4 seem to be hunting for gears and rough shifts. Sorry it's not on my top-ten list.
And ten days ago I was married...
I can always tell when youre doing the voice-overs at 3am! Lol.
Best youtuber content!
Houston misses ya!
I'm still partial to the Mazda CX5. I own a 2020 Signature. I test drove everything and it easily stood out. I worry about the hybrid battery costs if the powertrain fails after most 60,000 mile warranty and those CVT's. Around $3000-$7000 for a new battery makes me cringe. I guess too each their own. The CX5 does everything well. Sticking with it.
Who does your editing? The quality of your videos is incredible!
Been following the Mazda CX 90, and got one recently (Turbo Preferred Premium) and it does not disappoint, I still prefer 6-cylinder engines vs I4 Turbo's...Nice to see it was part of your special mention.
Is it comfortable for a tall driver? I heard CX-9 is not.
Heard from some it’s super nice and then others that they have catastrophic engine failure
I love the Mazdas but I can't stand that wheel-driven infotainment system. It's a deal breaker for me. I don't know why they persist with it. They're claims about safety are complete nonsense.
I was thinking the same but then learned that they took that engine that should be very easy to work on and made it completely unworkable for anyone.. to do any engine work other than an oil change the engine has to be removed this is because they put the timing chains and all other components including the turbo behind the engine... WTF! And then there's the hybrid system that's such a disappointment that they had to put a separate starter for cold starts 🙉 the whole thing is just sad.. I wanted that inline 6 so bad but looks like I'll have to look elsewhere
Can't beat an inline six. It'll last a long time.
Do a video on best mini van models! Would be awesome to hear your thoughts on that!
10 days ago, you did a video, stop buying new Hondas, they are having major problems. 10 days later you are doing a video on suvs to buy and you recommend Hondas. You do similar things to this often.
Well he's got to come out with some kind of content to keep his channel going. 🤷
At this point, Scotty is just a talk show. He isn't meant to be taken literally. If you want real tips, get it from forums.
If you want mechanical and systems information, you can absolutely trust anybody except Scotty but take some of his information with a grain of salt.
Been subbed to him for almost 5 years and his money chase system has never changed.
Why with all his money, he has 3 piece of crap Toyota's, why he doesn't lease a different car every year and give us reviews on that vehicle (and scrap those 3 Toyota's) 🤷
Maybe got Parkinson or something
If you believe what this Oldman says then you a joke… he just an entertainer.
Love my 2022 Highlander. It is so comfortable, and I was really surprised on how good it is on gas mileage.
Thanks Scotty. The Mazda CX5 is a worth a mention.
What is the best evaluation of the Subaru Ascent from 2021 or 2023? I hope you will discuss the evaluation of the performance of each of them. Thank you
Just bought my 2024 crv sport this last weekend! Love it!!
Did you get the hybrid or 1.5 liter turbo?
@@johndale8614 Hybrid. I had some issues with it since. Had to replace fuel injectors with pipe assembly as well as a spark plug. Once in a while sensor lights come on like lane assist and lane departure advising me to see dealer. Dealer acts like there nothing there.
@@LATOHOUSTON this is very poor for a Honda! Shocking!!! Thanks for sharing.
Nice video production! Don't forget the old format too!
For cars that are as good as the Rav4, ALWAYS get the "tweaked" model, as in 5th generation and NOT the "new" one... JUST in case there's something wrong with it. NEVER buy the 1st year of a brand new model. You'll be stuck with the most problems { problems get worked out over YEARS and eventually they get solved, or as solved as the manufacturer wants them to be} but if you get the 5th or 6th model year of that generation, all of the bugs should be worked out and you will be as safe / set as possible with the fewest problems.

Test drove a 2023 Rav-4 and the hybrid version. Prior, I had a FJ Cruiser for 15 years - never had a problem with it. The issue with the RAV is even in the premium trims, it looks and drives like a truck. The hybrid was a smooth ride but they were asking $8,500 over MSRP. I ended up buying a 2024 Mazda CX-50, Meridian edition. I love it.
Toyota dealers drive all customers away from Toyota auto vehicles!! And it accelerates the California Dems's plan to stop selling ICE vehicles!! LoL
I would not pay anything more than MSRP or even below MSRP or just buy used car !!
Toyota's aren't the 'perfect vehicle' (I think they're overpriced & not as reliable as they used to be & the old reliable Toyota's are gas hogs, lucky we have the choice to buy other brands like Mazda, Subaru, Hyundai, Suzuki, Ford etc 👍
@@mrgarrison3516yeah because Subaru, Hyundai and Ford never have any reliability issues. Subarus boxer engines are notorious for premature head gasket problems and oil leaks, Hyundai has engines in some models routinely failing at or before 80k miles, and Fords… well they’re Fords, choose your problem there (e.g. check out reliability of explorers and expeditions over last 10 years).
@@williamfrench9973
Your living in the past, Subaru don't have those problems now...where have the been the last 30 year? F**king your Toyota in the exhaust
MHarrison - Yes, because Hyundai and Ford are both bastions of reliability. Next you’ll be waxing poetic about the reliability of a Jeep. ROTFLMFAO 😀
We keep the third row of our 2022 highlander folded down and just use it as extra cargo space. If need to take an extra kid home from soccer practice can flip em up.
Bought cr v a couple of days ago and I love it
Rav4....we own two of them now....06 and 10.....love them.
I missed the CX5. I have one and in personal test it fitted much better than crv and RAV4. Money and finishing much better
AGREE 100%
I was originally excited about the new RX until I sat in it. I wanted to replace my GLC with the RX. I felt I was in my 2017 Camry. I am not sure why Toyota went the other way on the RX for interior quality feel. Also, the rear legroom is pretty much the same as my GLC. I was hoping for GLE legroom. I would like to get the Prime, but long wait. Maybe I’ll just order (if I can) one and wait. One thing I didn’t like about the redesigned RAV4 for 2019, why did they put the gear shifter on the passenger side. 😊😂. I can only imagine how you would say my last sentence with both of your hands waving in the air. I love watching your videos, your guidance and opinions. Keep up the great work. Thank you.
Hi Scotty, I have asked a question in your forum regarding my toyota Etios Liva . Please guide me on the issue and what could be done to resolve the problem
great video !
Aside from sorely overlooking Subarus, you also forgot the 2023 Toyota Venza-some call it a Camry SUV, and others say it should’ve been a Lexus-a hidden gem.
That Venza is sharp!!! I'd love to own one, but it's a little out of my league price wise. 😟
Still love my 2005 Highlander - 20 years young!
These motion graphics are incredible
What large luxury suvs with 3rd row do you recommend?
Highlander would get my vote
I’m surprised you mentioned a very new cx90 and not the proven cx5. Own a 5 myself and love it. The interior is far superior to competitors and the transmission and engine are typical mazda zoom zoom. You always say made in Japan is best. Thank god they are done with ford and doing what they do best
I agree. I watched an in-depth review by @TheCarCarenut who loved the styling - but some of the mechanical design decisions seem destined to lead to problems. Time will tell I guess. I also agree that the cx5 deserves a mention. I’ve rented a few of these and have found them to be nice to drive.
@@williamfrench9973Are you referring to mechanical designs of the RAV4?
I'm looking at buying a Mazda CX-5. What don't you like about it?
@@notmebutyou8350 no, the design of the cx-90.
As I said, in my previous comment, I liked the CX-5
Awesome video
Scotty you forgot to mention Trailsport trim for Honda Pilot even though it’s the main trim shown.
Scotty, unless the engineers have increased the safety of the 3rd row seating area of any vehicles, I'd NEVER put any humans or even pets that I love in the 3rd row seats. As a police officer (retired) I worked numerous collisions where rear end crush was catastrophic. Any person sitting in the 3rd row was always injured the most and many of them were fatal.
Thanks for the education, very well noted. I have to reconsider putting my kids back there in my 2017 Nissan X-Trail
Thank u for this very valuable info. I was seriously considering a 3 row suv, specifically a Toyota highlander. After reading this comment, that idea is definitely out. I will stick to a standard suv.
Even the Volvo XC-90… they perform very well in crash tests.
Buy the Odyssey. It’s built like a tank…
@@realnapster1522 So it won't tank?
C-RV 2024 I think will be one of the top suv out there.
Love rav4 in PuertoRico the extreme weather this suv work great
Love the 2023 Highlander.
Curious about the Corolla crossover.
My 2024 BMW X5 is amazing. I know you don’t like BMW’s thinking they’re overpriced and I might even agree. An Infinity RX80, more expensive, would be my second choice. There’s not much that can pry me out of my X5 other than my M4.
Hey sir quick question, what do you think of 2021 v8 Nissan armada I’m looking to trade my 2017 Ford Explorer because of the room for the family and performance but I am a Toyota guy usually and my Ford has been good but too small, what is your opinion in the armada
I have a Suzuki Grand Vitara 2016, went to look for the RAV, but the RAV is smaller on the inside and the price is double that of my Suzuki and it's less luxurious. And to top it off, standard yearly maintenance is almost 3 times more than that of the 2016 Suzuki. Just so odd. Ok, fuel economy is lots better on the RAV as that's not full time 4WD and is hybrid. It just stunned me.
Can you comment on 2024 Kia Telluride, is it worth buying at this time?
The Mazda is definitely available and in stock at dealerships as we speak
There's a good reason why a LOT of Mazdas are in stock!!
Scotty what do you think of the 2023 Volvo XC60 Bright package?? Its up in price but is it worth it?
I am not sure about the CX90 Model? But as the owner of 2018 & 2021 CX9 back to back, I find Mazda to the most underrated crossover in the last 5/6 Years. ✌✌✌
This is the reason im going to buy Mazda Cx-9 or 90 very soon
Please do sedans next
The 2016 pilot was a nightmare I purchased it at the end of 2015. Went through 2 transmissions in the first 2 years of ownership.!
Not the Rav4 or CRV since they are CVT, I will just go with the RX or the Pilot for those that are budget wise
Scotty, what about the new 2024 Grand Highlander?
I like the RAV4, but I don't want or need AWD!
Research shows, to me, that the current RAV-4 is obsolete. You would have thought that Toyota wouldn't let this happen. Current RA-4 vehicles are like lumber wagons compared to the new Honda CRV. Don't take my word for it, test drive both and see for yourself. Have a good day! Love your shows.
The traverse has an amazing 3rd row
I own a pilot with 120k+ miles and it's been solid.
Various issues came up and were covered under warranty and even after warranty they somehow still covered it!
Still, my next SUV will probably be the Toyota Grand Highlinder.
I saw a grand highlander today for the first time in downtown Miami. Beautiful vehicle with a lot of presence. I left Honda due to our past 4 Hondas giving us transmissions and ac failures before 150k miles.
Why? For one, the Grand Highland looks horrendous, and it just gets worse from there. Get a Telluride, or if your fine with its wonky looks, the CX90.
@jordanplays-transitandgame1690 I'm sorry you bought a Telluride. If you aren't sorry, you will be eventually...don't mean to be mean, just facts.
What a waste of money....justget another honda....toyota isn't as good asnit used to be..
@@xxk4rilsxx had you had a 4 cylinder honda,you'd still be on the first one. But I've seen many v6 hondas with the orignal tranny at 200k.. I'll say this again
...toyota isn't what it used to be....even scotty has said it... but they're tin and plastic that's way overpriced....
Would have been nice for you to put the Mazda CX 5 in the mix!
The Honda PIlot has the greatest width between wheel wells...wide enough for a sheet of plywood or two extra large dog boxes side by side.
We ❤ your RUclips channel 👍
I’m in the market for a smaller SUV. Keep in mind, I owned a 2014 for expedition with 156k
2010 NAVIGATOR with 98k
Both vehicles are amazing in my book, space, power, reliability, forget about the MPG! So it’s really hard for me to pick a new vehicle, there’s nothing out there that tickles my wallet! Thank you Scott, but I’m keeping my Americans
Lexus TX 500H plug-in!!
Thanks, I'll keep it in mind.
Rav4 all the way we own a 2019 and it's been the best car we ever own . thanks to you
Whats the best Nissan crossover out there?
who edits your videos needs a raise 👏🏻
I'd rather find a Acura TSX sport wagon over any of these (if I could find one in reasonable condition and cost)
I really like the new Acura MDX! Smooth power, great comfort and sporty handling for 20-30k less than BMW, Mercedes or Porsche. Plus insurance less expensive than German cars.
I just bought a 2023 Acura MDX SH-AWD
And I love it! So smooth and Quiet!
@@Juicycat30when you test one out make sure you try the SH-AWD MDX. Smooth and Quiet!
I ended up getting a 2023 over the 2024.
@@joematty1353 I got last week a tech pkg 2024 sh awd MDX
What About the RDX I got a 2022 best car I ever bought and had a2018 before that and it was great both are problem free at least for me, better bang for compared to a BMW or Mercedes
Got the 2023 Outlander. Got a nice trim with the savings.
I owned a 2017 Mitsubushi Outlander Sport from new until a week ago I traded it in because I wanted a new one. No issues at all and it had 98,000 miles when I traded it in. Just last week I bought the 2023 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport GT fully loaded for 30,000 out the door with the 2.4 liter engine... I wanted to buy the new Outlander Ralliart because it just looks amazing but wasn't going to spend over $40,000 dollars for it...Good luck with your Outlander...My Outlander Sports have been very very reliable and easy to maintain...
As long as they are Toyota forth or fifth generation hybrid drivetrains then you are bullet proof. A full size hybrid SUV is the new TX500h Lexus, a great vehicle for three rows, handsdown.
🙄
surprised that you chose to talk about the cx-90 over the cx-5. looks like a fantastic car but like you said, it's not proven yet. the cs-5 has been sold for a decade now with a very solid track record, and you can buy a top-end trim for under 40 grand (with a turbocharged 2.5 4 cyl). might not be fantastic if youre really about having seating for 8, but id probably recommend the 5 over the 90 6 days of the week
Like the Mazda, perhaps the grand highlander should be on the list
100 percent, Grand Highlander tops the Highlander for $3-5k extra, with similar options. 3rd row is fully usable and still has cargo space. WORTH IT.
We just went to the auto show in Cleveland laat month and saw the Grand Highlander. Man, that thing is a beast!! It's really a beautiful vehicle!
With all the talk about Acuras, I'm surprised the MDX or RDX didn't make the list. I have a 2013 that still runs like a Swiss watch.
Which Rdx or MDX
I like those CX90s
I just got a 23 buick envision preferred and got 8k off of MSRP plus 1500 rebate. Dealerships in my area are desperate to get rid of the 23 models. My payment is lower than it would have been on the used SUVs I was looking at that were 5+ yrs old. What a crazy market lol
I'm looking at this Envision as well and was surprised how good. Will look for those reduced prices and rebates. I'm in Canada, so I haven't seen many reductions yet.
@@noreenmurphy3591 I went on the last day of the month. I think that helped Usually when I buy, I go on one of the last days of the year. This time around I couldn't wait that long.
thats great better than a overpriced toyota junk!
@@theeconomist100 my first car was a 94 Toyota Celica - which I adored. Haven't owned a Toyota since so I have no input there.
@@ashleybaker7155 old toyota made before 2005 had great reliability. not so much anymore.
You forgot the New Lexus TX…with the last naturally aspirated V6.
Bought a 2018 Honda CRV and not long after had a fuel injector issue.. I’ve owned like 4 Hondas before that all way older models and never had that issue.. cost me like $1500 to repair.. hoping they do a re call. Apparently a lot of people are having the same issues with the injectors on certain makes
hey scott do a video on the new kia sportage front wheel 4
It's a shame that Toyota are selling expensive hybrid and turbo junk🙁
You guys are too obsessed with Toyota.....Hondas are just as good. My fords and hondas have gone well over 300k
@@richsweeney1115 you're not wrong there, if the individual keeps up on good regular maintenance and doesn't strain the engine and transmission too much. they're alright in respect to fords.
hondas are pretty fun vehicles in general.
Outside the North American market, Toyota still sells V8 naturally aspirated powered trucks.
Toyota is switching to EVs too, just like Scotty. The ICE age is over 😘
It’s not that they’re junk, they’re just expensive
My parents gave me life Scotty taught me how to live it
could you do a small senior friendly svu on what to look for thani you
I wish there were a Rav4 Prime with the upcoming solid state battery and maybe a 100 mile EV range. That would be the icing on the cake until EV finally comes of age (probably closer to 2030 if I had to guess).
raav4 - still has a NA engine that has good acceleration and great gas mileage - also rock solid reliability.
I am getting 20 to 22 MPG in a Rav 4 a 4 cylinder and got 26 MPG on a V6 Honda Accord.
I agree, I just drove from the Bay area to La, 6.5 hours and did it on one tank of fuel getting 38 mpg. I rented a Mitsubishi hybrid before and did the same trip, I had to stop for gas 3/4 of the way through the trip.
Please explain how home made hydrogen car is ti safe or what etc ect.
Those torque figures are baffling my 1.6 diesel CRV produces 221lb/ft
I personally liked the new Mazda x90 , and I think the Kia Sorento should've made the list. Thanks
He said Korean car are trash
I had a 2004 Pilot and now have the 2023 Pilot. It’s a great vehicle. The 3.5l v6 almost hasn’t changed and is bullet proof. It’s a little quicker in the 2023 but it’s the same naturally aspirated engine. This is probably one of the contributing factors to its smog rating! Truthfully I don’t care, the engine is great. Very happy.
Despite being direct injected 😢
Hasn’t changed? The only thing on that engine that hasn’t changed is the fact it’s still a 3.5
I own a 2010 one of the worst rated ones and I’ve never ever atchually had to fix anything on it except for a recall and oil changes and things like that
@@TechDealz I’m sure your right, but I still like the fact that the Honda Pilot didn’t follow the trend of changing engine types and adding turbos to the Pilot. Just use what has proven to work.
Think you're right. I drive a 2013 Acura TL 3.7l SH-awd and it's bullet-proof. When I'm ready for SUV.. Your 2023 Pilot will be @ the top of my list. Hoping many people leased it and will return after 3-4 years. Will be a great cash buy.
What would you all recommend because i see from the comments here that the 24 RAV4 hybrid is obsolete, and the 2024 CR-V Hybrid is a POS. I had my heart set on one of those cars, but given what ive read...yeesh.
Im 6'2 and have some back issues. So i want to try and keep it under 40k and have good mileage so a hybrid. What would you all recommend?
we got a cx9 and i like it the car is fun to drive i just dont like the small steating in the car im tall and its annoying to sit in it i have a infiniti g35 which is much better surprisingly i also prefer the 2003 crv design its much better looking and it has over 300k miles
Love our 2020 Kia Sorento V6. We’ve had two Highlanders. The Sorento is just as reliable for 5k less. The RAVA 4 sells because of the lower cost but it’s is uncomfortably much smaller. The Sorento is as big inside as the Highlander.
Let me know your thoughts when you get beyond 100,000 miles, in less than 5 years.
@@juanitahardy8583 We have a 2016 SXL Sorento. Only have 81K miles, but have replaced the battery twice, tires once and the oil pressure sensor once. We rated it higher than the Highlander when deciding which one to buy.
Did you really compare kia reliability with Toyota 🤣🤣🤣
@@juanitahardy8583 I second that.
@@juanitahardy8583 I have 7 years old Hyundai Ioniq, 123000 miles on the clock and everything still original and works as like it is new! I know it is Hyundai, but KIA and Hyundai have share the same parts, my Ioniq hybrid share parts with KIA niro Hybrid!
Hey Scotty! Been watching forever. While I used to agree with you on Kia being junk I picked up a 2020 Telluride and with all its accolades I believe Kia has turned a corner especially with sniping as many VW group engineers as they have and you should take a look a second look at their post 2018 offerings!
I'm driving Kia Telluride 2022 night sky and it's amazing car. No issues and best warranty on the market. This guy is biased and not telling the truth.
@@natapr08 He is biased for a reason. One of the reason is that Hyundai and KIA is not consistent. Yes you can have your KIA telluride just fine, how about the others who have blown up gasket and oil dilution problem. Not your problem right? Of course it is not your problem! But Scotty can't just not be biased because you have a good luck with your telluride! Make sense?
@blackdan0259 There is no consistency with any car makers.
Check the recalls with other car makers and compare between them. Kia and Huyndai have much fewer recalls compared with other car makers.
@@natapr08 That is what you think though, show me the credible data! You can't say he is biased when you sound like a KIA/Hyundai fanboy! The history however still true that in general Honda and Toyota created reliable cars over decades of track record! I check recalls over millions of Toyota and Honda sold. What those two sold trampled what KIA/Hyundai sold by almost triple. Now when I checked the recalls, both Toyota and Honda combined has less recalls with more sales of the cars. Now go figure it out yourself, don't be the guy who called someone is biased when you yourself is biased there!
That is how you draw the conclusion, not just throw arbitrary "other car makers"!
One crossover should have been on the list is Mazda CX5, what say you, please?
Of course where it’s Acura MDX should be in the list !!
I just purchased a 2023 Nissan Rogue, has a great drive and plenty of safety features. Extremely smooth, imo it should've made the list. Since the entire powertrain is new hoping the CVT gives no problems in the future.
But it’s a Nissan
@@ernestogalvan143 Nissans can be great! The CVT transmission will be the make or break because in the past, they haven’t been good from Nissan.
Change the CVT fluid regularly. Good luck.
Hopefully better CVT, yet my concern is not so much the mechanical past failures, but more the huge failure of Nissan for failing their Customers and not properly recalling and remedying their obvious flawed products!
After looking at all the new stuff--- I'm tempted to buy a USED LEXUS GX470 or 460... and YES I know they're gas guzzlers- but I won't be out that much- and when I do- I want to go where I want to go with NO issues--- and the GX will OUTPERFORM any jeep. Theyre also documented to go over million miles.. and are HIGHLY customizable. I like the Mazda CX-50 for look- and the CX-5 for performance-- but neither is good on much but wet roads or normal driving- even deep snow is hard for them. GX can go where a jeep can't- and if it gets really bad- turn on the lockers (I'd have front and rear lockers installed ) and air down and go.. can't do that on these low things... SO I think I'm going to just get a lexus. I know two coimpanies that RECONDITION them and have good prices on selling. Mirramr in San Diego CA- goes through them and does reboots, checks any linkages, electrical- everything-- and since most of theirs are California vehicles- NO RUST.. so that would be great- and they have them ALREADY lifted with stuff I want done!!! I'd just have to go drive it back.. not sure of shipping costs. (to VIRGINIA) That's only 2370 miles..
love the GX Lexus and they put the awesome V8 proven engines from lexus in these SUVs! Plus can tow and lot of space. Big SUV takes getting used to driving feels like driving a bus or tank however compared to the smaller RX.
@@GuitarsAndSynths YEP- that's another reason I decided against it- that and the 8 mpg.. is I only have ONE eye now- depth perception NOT good.. and the parking spaces in most lots now is BARELY wide enough for the small cars we have now-- with little to no room to get out-- much less put a big SUV in them.. :) Oh well- guess I'm too old and too bad shape for that and my time has passed for it..
What about the Lexus RX
@@dons1643 Outa my range- and not sure about the mileage...I decided on Mazda CX-50 Meridian with a 1.5 inch factory lift.. that'll do the only offroading I really need to do..
It matches with the top 5 stolen cars as per police report in Canada lol
Getting down to Honda & Toyota/Lexus/Subaru and Mazda
I went with a preowned 17 Acura MDX, 2 weeks so far and it's a badass suv.
I'll bet you don't get 200K on that auto transmission.
@@alanlindquist8329is it specific to the MDX? Bc I have an 07 TL with 250k on original trans no issues. Previous gen had issues though.
still a trackpad - no go for me
Mazda cx5
Buying a slightly used 2023 Lexus GX460 tomorrow!
What about 2023 VW Tigual SEL R Line? No recalls as of yet...!!! Please advise
Scotty clearly has a love for Toyota/Lexus and I, also a mechanic, completely appreciate this because I know they are almost always the best and most reliable cars around. But I’ll still take my ‘92 4Runner over the RAV4. My wife will probably end up with that 😂
Dealer told me Japs made Toyota for rural areas where there is no garage near by. I just got a Rav4 after having Honda for 20 years and going to switch back to Passport or Pilot. The gear shifter bugs me as I have nerve damage in my hands and hard to shift, like having a manual trans without the clutch. LOL.....
Just traded my 2020 Lexus 350RX in for the new 2023 Honda Pilot Trailsport. Loved my Lexus but couldn't be happier with the Pilot trailsport. It can go right from the country club to the remote campsite - can't beat that!
I purchased a 2023 Pilot back in May, and put 6k miles on it during a family road trip in July. Flawless!
So...for only 6k what do you expect goofy...hope you changed the oil. Nobody wants to hear any car at 6k...talk back to us once it reaches 100k...goof!
You could say that about any new car lol. No car is going to break down in the first 10,000 miles.
Watchout for the 2023 Pilot's infamous roof water leaks. Those are a nightmare. Hopefully you don't experience that.
Great, but only time will tell how reliable your 2023 pilot is. My 07 Honda pilot has now 156k miles only the radiator is not original due to rust. I recently completed a 1k road trip.
that nothing! new honda are crap
So far I'm happy with my 2023 Subaru Forester Wilderness!
those lexus shots are near my home lol noticed the streets and buildings.
Pilot is my favorite one, because it looks great an still has an NA V6 engine which belongs in that body style... bet you anything they gave it a poor smog rating just because they used a regular V6 instead of a turbo charged 4 cyl. I'm sorry but I'm not trusting a turbo 4 cyl in a body that size. The whole reason I'm getting the Pilot over the Highlander. Toyota is moving in the whole turbo direction and I'm not about it.
Hey scotty if you to choose between the Toyota rav4, mazda cx5 or cx50 and the Honda CRV which one personally would you take home 🏡
I completely agree which is why I bought the 2023 Pilot over the Highlander.
@@jackofalltrades4844 I'm about to get one in a couple of months and I'm so ready. I'll miss my F150 and 2010 RX350 though. Both have been solid and been good to me.
I purchased a 2023 Pilot and have had it for about two months. I am a Honda loyalist and have driven nothing but Hondas since 95. I have had two Civics and two Accords. However, I did have an issue that arose with my 05 Civic which was a head gasket issue. One of my coworkers had the same exact issue in an 04 or 06, I forget what year. I can chalk this up as a glitch in that generation. Other than that, I have had no major problems. I just traded in a 13 Accord with 262,000 miles on it. The main reason I got the Pilot was because it still has that V6 power. I prefer the power, so I just deal with the gas prices. I detest that many of these companies have gone mainly to a 4 cylinder or the turbo charged 4 cylinder engines. I just can’t see having this small engine in something the size of a Pilot. I would have gotten another Accord but everything is either a Hybrid, 4 cylinder, or 4 cylinder turbo. I love the handling, comfort, space, and look of the Pilot. This generation they went back to the boxy look which looks great. The 6 has a lot of oomph to it as well.
I bought a 23 Honda crv hybrid love it so far it’s my first hybrid car. Are Honda cvt transmission good ?
they are good, my 2014 accord cvt has 155k miles and no issues
LOL, I'd love it when you change your trans and asks for cvt!
Re Mazda CX-90: saw a vid saying to replace the timing chain you have to take out the engine? Yikes
thinking about purchasing a 2024 grand cherokee luxury version. your thoughts?
Don't buy a Highlander. Bought a new 21xle and it may rate as reliable if you can stand the road noise and metal so thin it dents if you press on it. Also, Toyota puts no insulation in the door chambers contributing to more noise. Shame on Toyota.
