#1286 of 1334 Re: ROOM FOR 3 KIDS [allison5] by parsonadamsap Sep 25, 2006 (11:46 am)
Replying to: allison5 (Sep 21, 2006 7:18 pm) We own a 2005 Odyssey and a 2006 Pilot and of the two, we all prefer the family functionality of the Odyssey. Our kids are 2 and 3 years old. There is (far) more leg room in the second row, and grandparents or friends can more easily fit in the third row than in the Pilot's. The ride in the Odyssey is also better. Plus, there is an almost unlimited amount of storage capacity in the Odyssey-even with the third row of seats in use. Plus, it is likely to be less expensive to purchase.   We plan to use the 4WD Pilot for the winter trips skiing locally and around Tahoe. Because Calfornia enforces chain control on snowy roads, I hope to avoid what happened last year on one trip to Tahoe--driving the Odyssey the last 40 miles or so on snowchain cables. Because I used to own a 14-year-old 4Runner, last year driving to the local ski area I avoided chains probably 12 of the 15 times. Hopefully the the 4WD "lite" of the Pilot will get me over icy roads and the hub deep, spring mud freshets of the access road.   For me and for the money, the Odyssey is a much more practical family vehicle. Got to love those electric doors, too! Replies to this message: allison5 (Sep 25, 2006 5:52 pm) master1 (Oct 05, 2006 5:55 pm)

Replying to: parsonadamsap (Sep 25, 2006 11:46 am) If it were you choosing between the pilot and odyessy with 3 kids sounds like you would choose the Odyessy. After having a van and now a SUV I truly do miss those sliding doors and the space. However here is my dilemma, we live in California as well and we drive up to Lake Tahoe on those snowy roads at least a half a dozen times in winter. Really looking forward to the first good snowfall!!!! Anyway after owning an old odyessy and having to deal with chains that year I was really liking it the last few years, I was able to completly escape the chains. So I just do not know what to do. I have checked out Sienna AWD, too expensive and not comfy for me. SO I am not sure whether to get minivan and not worry about snow conditions or not worry about the room for 3 kids and dog. Any ideas??!!!
#1289 of 1334 radio issue by gowmtribe Oct 02, 2006 (5:20 pm)
I have had my '06 Pilot for a month now. Last night I left work and turned on my radio to discover no sound. XM, AM/FM, CD all with no sound. I kept pushing buttons DVD/AUX and finally heard a pop and sound came back. I have heard theories about cold weather -- it was midnight and the coldest night since I have had my pilot -- about 55 degress. Has anyone figured out what is happening with the radio -- it has only happened once and has not happened since. Thanx.

Replying to: gowmtribe (Oct 02, 2006 5:20 pm) No suggestions about why or whether the problem is likely to re-occur, but the same thing has been reported bo other 06 Pilot owners. You could probably get the dealer to replace the radio if you complain. I'd probably wait and see if it happened again before doing anything - perhaps it was a one-time glitch and it's always good if you can avoid having someone tear into your dash at the dealership.   - Mark Replies to this message: gowmtribe (Oct 05, 2006 5:02 am)

Replying to: markjenn (Oct 04, 2006 8:07 pm) I agree totally. I decided to wait -- it has not happened since. Last thing I want is to rip into the dash board. Thanks for your input.

#1293 of 1334 Lowering road noise with Dynamat by ksayers Oct 12, 2006 (10:49 am)
Has anyone tried to cut down the road noise by installing Dynamat on the front driver and passenger floors ? If so, did it work ? How much was it ? Any issues installing ?   And... are there alternatives to Dynamat that work ?    Thanks !
#1294 of 1334 Has the Pilot been redesigned for 2007? by gunga64 Oct 15, 2006 (2:47 pm)
I just saw a picture of the new MDX and it's ugly!!!! It looks exactly like the CRV 2007 that is also very disappointing. What is going on over at Honda? WHo are they getting to design these duds???? Shame I really want to break out of my Toyota mold but if this is what Honda is going to offer, I may have to look elsewhere.
#1295 of 1334 Roadtrips by sasuke Oct 15, 2006 (4:08 pm)
I'm buying an SUV this month, and I don't have children or anything, but plan on using my next SUV to take roadtrips with friends...I was wondering what you guys though of the middle row as far as comfort.   I wish you can slide the middle row back more to make additional leg room.
