With all the room available in the Pilot, being tall isn't going to be a problem. The second row features two buttons; one being on the seat bottom and the other located on the seat back, making exiting the vehicle painless, even for a person that is six feet tall.

The Pilot also offers plenty of USB ports, some being powerful enough to charge iPads. Parents can also enjoy many entertainment options, but may be more excited about all the available storage in the Pilot. The center console is much larger than the old Pilot and can easily hold a large purse. The smaller cubbies throughout the vehicle make storing childrens things convenient as well. The cargo area is also impressive with its significant amount of under floor storage. The hard plastic cover behind the third row can be moved to the bottom to create more room for taller items.

When it was new in 2003, the Pilot got the driving height and all-weather traction of the SUV right, and wrapped it in an airy Honda-like body with lots of seats, superb visibility and, truth, frumpy looks.
