Replying to: albook (Apr 23, 2008 4:02 pm) 8"/8.3"(G.C.) of ground clearance and short front/rear overhangs preclude it going off road in your (al)book "The Jeep can tow too' if you line up 6 cyl models to compare apples to apples then the pilot wins 4500lbs vs. 3500lbs for the G.C. this is my favorite though; "And these things don't necessarily make an SUV, but all BOF SUVs (and a select few unibodies like the Cherokee and Toureg) have them" so you want to have it both ways... you want to dismiss the pilot as not being a SUV because it doesn't meet these requirements you need it to have to be called a SUV. you then in the very same statement go on to dismiss the very criteria you use to measure the pilot's lack of SUV-ness as any definable measure of SUV's in general other than to say they all have them. at this point you can make an argument the lambda's are SUV's, the CX's, any of them for that matter as they can all tow to an extent and can go off road in some manner. "Yet again, I logically defend my point. " corrected... yet again, I made NO point...

Replying to: thegraduate (Apr 24, 2008 8:58 am) Not designed to be an SUV-wannabe, the Pilot was engineered with medium-duty off- road capabilities including eight inches of ground clearance, an 28-degree approach angle, 21-degree departure and break over angles and the ability to climb a 28-degree dirt slope from a standing stop.

Hey grad, your picture is too wide and is causing the posts to stretch under the ads to the right. Can you please shrink it or remove it?

I found some more CUV vs SUV vs minivan sales trends for you juice. Note that they state minivan sales are expected to be below 600k this year. Make sure you look at the graph at the end of the article too. Click here for the article and graph.

Replying to: steve_ (Apr 24, 2008 10:02 am) Shouldn't that lock the Pilot into what is essentially "4WD HIGH" ?
