2017 Honda Pilot EX-L Review Interior & Exterior In Depth Feature Tutorial THE Elite Touring SUV

[@gpmalotorn]

I just bought my Honda Pilot yesterday and this video saved me from having to explain everything to my wife. Very informative tutorial.Well done. A little video glitch while explaining the backup camera, but is negligible. It is very important to emphasize that Honda uses carplay to access map and navigation. So if you forget your cell phone, you will not have a map. This is a smart, or sneaky business, from their part as it saves them thousands on the software plus updates. The logic, I guess, is that if you can afford a nearly $40,000 car, you can afford a cellphone.

Just purchased the exact color and model for my wife last week.

After watching close to 60 different videos of Salesmen/Women "Trying to explain" the features of the Honda Pilot and Honda CRV, "you are the only one" who did it in such Great detail, none of them ever mentioned anything about the ECO Mode or that the engine will run on three cylinders instead of 6 when not under load there by giving greater fuel millage, another suprise was the fact that the wireless key fop has a hidden valet key built into it. The only thing you may want to keep in mind the next time you make a video on one of these SUV's is to turn the inside lights on or have a small flood light in back of you to make the inside of the dark cargo area more visible, other then that you have sold me on the Honda Pilot. Thank You

+Jim Reagan WOW! I can't thank you enough for the feedback. I am so glad that you found the video helpful and I definitely will take your advise on the lighting. I noticed that as well. Thanks again for the kind words! Brock

HowToCarGuy mi buen cuerpo

[@psuave1210]

I agree. I knew about the key fob, valet key, but honestly, was not too sure how it worked. And the part about putting the key fob next to the start button, did know that! I have a 2013 Accord EXL btw. Now I really want a mid size truck and I keep going back and forth between this and the Highlander. I like the tech on the Pilot...Apple Car play is a big incentive for me. I have had both Toyotas and Honda and like them both. I really like this Pilot. Decisions, decisions.

[@powethpala2087]

And this is how you do a review. Exactly the info you need to know when considering a vehicle

God blessed me to be able to get this car and all I keep thinking about is that I couldn't afford the touring. Watching This, it's such a nice vehicle. Wish it had the Pano roof.

[@adp33]

[@yousufmirza1853]

I am thinking to buy Honda Pilot please any one can help which trim should I buy & which Model is better to buy because some of models has transmission issue thanks

[@Kory4000]

I saw you talked about variable assist with the v6. Did I miss you talk about the transmission?

[@thebull5099]

Do they leak gas in with the oil just as the 2017 - 2020 crv does.

[@ca441970]

No, that’s because of the turbo 1.5L motor.

[@tamrabrensing2021]

Very nice video! Considering a Honda - !

[@HowToCarGuy]

Thank you so much for the positive feedback and for stopping by! I am glad you enjoyed it!

[@waynewilliams1487]

J thought the headlamps were halogen projectors; what model has led headlamps? I have poor vision and only use LEds

[@dieselxdan]

thank you for the awesome in depth video.. Helps with my decision

[@HowToCarGuy]

I'm glad this helped you, my friend!!

[@ruben1327]

How many Types of Honda Pilots are there for example this one is an EX-L what are the other names for them?

[@Netachi]

LX, EX, EX-L, Touring and Elite

[@loquito1966]

Great video.

[@ministrofrancisperaltaofic8170]

Muy buena es pricacion mi hermano me gustaría tener una de esa

[@mymusic101]

Very good review , Thanks

[@HowToCarGuy]

You are most welcome! Thanks for stopping by!

[@terrycrews1760]

Sooo I’m watching this video bc this exact car and same color 2017 HONDA PILOT EX-L is selling at our local dealership for 26K total purchase price (OTD). Payments on a 72 month at 6% with 2K down puts me about at $380 a month. Feels like a great deal but I’m not sure if that’s worth it based on age. Any thoughts? Edit: forgot to say a super important details. It has alittle over 60K miles. For additional context we have 2 kids. 1 toddler and newborn so that is the push to look into this car.

[@toronado455]

I am interested in this vehicle in 2021. Same color and trim.

[@judygarrett49]

How do you get the heated seats to work? And ventilation in seats ?

[@2013TombRaider]

There are buttons between two seats where you keep your phone and stuff with two controls low heat or high heat.

[@charlieb4908]

Maybe buying 2017 Honda Pilot ex-l today, is this still a good car ??

[@ebony1111]

I just bought one and I love it one thing about Hondas they last FOREVER!!!

[@amakailoji5590]

Excellent video great

[@MikesCarInfo]

I want a studio like that... give me a studio :)

[@HowToCarGuy]

+MikesCarInfo This studio is amazing!!! I could live here.

[@prasanthsasidar]

[@aliciakeeney1305]

MikesCarInfo Love Love love your reviews too!!!!

[@angelcolon136]

Does this model not have the DVD in the middle top of vehicle?

[@michaelho4049]

I believe its standard on the Touring and Elite as Dave Wilson mentions but its optional on the EX-L. I bought my wife a CPO 2017 Pilot EX-L and it had it.

[@doct0rnic]

I noticed in your video that your honda pilot has a shift instead of the push buttons for the transmission. I checked the honda web site for the 2017 and the interior view still shows the push buttons. Is the shift an ad on or standard for 2017?

[@Netachi]

Buttons are for touring and elite trims. Shift for all lower trims.

[@patiencensula5232]

Does 2017 ex L have apple car play?

[@tamarapurvis7294]

Mine does

[@jackhuang9670]

Yes it does, mine does!

[@connecticutport]

where is the parking brake?

[@shreedalaldalal6361]

I like this

[@dereckhenderson2727]

I looking for one ☝️

[@iennguyen1954]

how's the MSRP

[@richbf2]

What are the differences between the 17 here vs 16 model year? Average mpg? Good and well explained video. Thanks.

[@kenzilliot5668]

richbf2 i

[@Netachi]

One major thing is in 2017 they added Android Auto and Apple Carplay.

[@mohamedfathel3622]

prices pls.

[@amanarfi4077]

Price

[@readyuptogame7215]

I know the 9 speed transmission is having problems but is the 6 speed legit?

[@bazuka0190]

readyuptogame on god!! Get the 6 speed

[@AccessDenied9095]

nice minivan

[@frank-jj5pz]

Why does this car have no CD?

[@adp33]

Most new cars dont have CD players. Same reason Cassettes are no longer in cars. Most people stream blutooth in place of a CD player. Still has Aux jacks to plug in other devices.

[@michaelho4049]

If you get it with the rear entertainment system (RES) you can play audio cd's. Also if you connect your phone via usb you can stream music off of iheart, pandora or spotify. Its a great car! I'm 6'3 and its tall ppl friendly. Plenty of legroom

[@gutadin5]

is this a SUV or a mini van?

[@bazuka0190]

gutadin5 both what ever you wanna call it

[@blerimvila2185]

❤

[@keoshafoust2498]

Shenika Winn we will both have one in Jesus Name Amen.

[@thebull5099]

You did a great job tho. They are priced so high. To much assist features. And costly when they mess up and need replaced.

[@scorpionking9925]

same features like BMW X5 but no same engine

[@HowToCarGuy]

+Scorpion King Good point. Luxury and reliability!!

[@2013TombRaider]

Scorpion King no same engine but more interior space and less maintenance with more reliability.
