Good evening everyone! I thought I'd let everyone know in the Northern CA area that I have received what feels like a good deal on a Bali Blue/Gray interior Pilot. Originally worked thru Costco Program but found better prices without it. Quoted is $35,220 + tax/license. Picking up on Saturday.

Boston Pilot 2009 EXL by cdolan59

I was reading on the Edmunds site about Gas Mileage. It indicated that the the pilot 2009 2wd averaged 19.3 miles per gallon and that the 4wd averaged 14.4. Honda only advertises a 1 mile per gallon difference between 2 and 4wd. I live in Boston and rarely turn on my 4wd, maybe 1-2 times per year. Does anyone have any information regarding a 5 mile per gallon difference in mileage?

Thought I'd throw my 2 cents in, being an 08 EX-L owner for about 12 months now, and love the vehicle. I'm also a big fan of Consumer Reports, and they rate the 08 Pilot higher than the 09 on a nbr of points I won't go into here.
 
For those that might come upon a similar scenario, I for one would be careful about selecting an 09 EX (which seems to have come with fewer features such as 4wd, leather, RES, etc?) at a price $2.5K higher than the 08? Maybe I'm missing something?

We got quoted $30,000.00 plus taxes, tag, and titling fees- brings to total $32407.
 
Is this a good price?
 
We have a possible trade in but was told don't expect much (4Runner '03 with 108,500 miles) They said to look at Kelly Blue Book. For good shape around $6,000.00 trade-in. We looked at Edmunds it is $9000.00 trade-in.
 
Thoughts anyone?

first time you post 29170 as OTD. I thought it is very good deal. but Now you told me it is just price for car. Then plus tax and fee. So totally you pay 29170*(1+8.625%)+Fee, that is a lot. Now I only condise 28000 for EX AWD is good price. Anyone get email or call from commonwealth Honda. they claim they will have big rebate on pilot. I wonder how is that.

Well, you are absolutely right regarding the fact that the 08 EXL would bring more features (leather, sunroof and RES) for 2.5k less, I tough about it.... but down the road in let's say 3 or 5 years if I decided to sell the car ...I believe that the new generation EX would perform better on resale value than the previous version.... just my opinion
 
So far I have put 300 miles on the pilot and can't complain with the way it drives
 
We have compared the car on the road back to back with the previous generation and I don't regret the decision.
 
To mitigate the lack of RES I installed a 11" jensen overhead DVD with 2 wireless headphones) ... got it from circuit city ... they have a especial $599 with free installation.
 
The kids are happy.. the wife is happy..therefore I'm happy

sunnyfl1- well said (kids are happy, wife is happy therefore...) I was looking for an alternative solution to the RES, thanks for solving my problem and saving me some $$
 
I'm still considering a few proposals for leasing the 09 EX-L and the dealers are pushing to get it closed by 1/5 which is fine by me. I'm just curious what will change after the 5th.
 
I'll post my proposals tomorrow.
