Micah, you are by far the best vehicle reviewer on UA-cam. Very engaging, entertaining, and informative with humor and silliness sprinkled throughout the video. And great shooting and editing by your behind-the-camera team. In a world where most auto review videos look like something produced by the DMV, your videos stand out (in a good way). Fantastic job!
Just came back from the Sacramento auto show. I've never considered Honda as I've been a Toyota/Lexus driver. However, this SUV was the winner for the all around best SUV. Myself being 5'10" i could sit comfortably in the third row, ingress/egress was simple and for those who like camping in their SUV having the seats lay down FLAT was a nice bonus. Cargo room is also very nice. This might be my first move to Honda. Toyota had nothing close to this SUV.
By far the most entertaining car review I have ever seen. Micah... you are truly gifted. You guys are totally having fun and it comes through to the viewers. Please credit the technicians and engineers behind your videos.
@Coleen West Given the 96% positive reaction to my video I'm not putting much stock in your assessment but I do have an honest question. Why would you leave a comment like that? What do you gain from attempting to denigrate my masculinity?
Micah 😄. Your car review vid of the 2019 Honda Pilot is truly undoubtedly an epic demonstration of what a car review vid is suppose to be, and Micah you hit this one out of the park. Combined with your incredible personality, this review vid is everything.
Wonderful review KBB keep up the good work, I bought my 2019 Pilot Elite on August and I love it so much I already put 7,000 miles I would not trade it for anything else...
Micah and Cooley are the best at this.... give us the facts, make it fun, tell us what's good and what's not and don't regurgitate whatever marketing blather you're given from the manufacturers. Great job as always, Mr Muzio.
Micah, you got great sense of humor and your crew as well. I Enjoy your reviews and the grip you got with your viewers. Keep it up brother. Keep them coming. Love the editing and best part here is the all round camera scenes. 😊
*Awesome features and mid-sized SUV for me, not too big nor too small. Great to haul in school stuff, projects and whatnot. Mom's Odyssey is also a great mini-van to have :- )*
As an owner of a 2008, 2012 and 2017 Pilots (the latter I sold within 7 months bc of driver's seat) these are my major complaints of the 2016-2019 iteration: 1) Removal of regular center armrest. A toothpick that comes down us NOT an armrest. ( I noticed 2019 has widened tip but still not an armrest). 2) Removal of volume control, remedied in 2019. 3) in 2019 removal of right mirror camera. To people like me with neck fusion it was a great convenience. I don't get its removal for a 3 light warning. 4) Main reason I sold my 2017 touring, which was a great vehicle overall very reliable except tire pressure sensors, the driver seat back is 6 inches too short (even comparing to 2012 model) and the headrest is fixed forth and aft and useless. Notice Micah's shoulder well above the driver's back seat higher horizontal end-line. With my fused neck and been 6.2 with no headrest support driving for more than 30 minutes was unbearable. My current 2018 Audi Q7 is perfect, high driver's seat back, very adjustable headrest. Even my much smaller '18 Q5 with warm weather package/sport seats has 6 inches higher driver's seat back and multi-adjustable headrest. Ergonomic perfection even for fused necks. Honda designers after 2015 lost their edge. Attention to detail and ergonomics (that made Honda popular in the '90's are gone. None existent. As if everyone has the perfect anatomy. Very dissapointed in u Honda and I wanted the new Passport but I noticed it has the same driver's seat as the Pilot.
Lots of good features compare to the 2013 I own, they are really reliable vehicles, in 5+ years have not have any issues other than a tire pressure monitor valve. Great work on the energy and post production of the video.
Very enjoyable video. Very informative and hilarious. I have never laughed so hard and gained so much knowledge at the same in a review video. Great job!
I like this Honda SUV. I wonder if i can buy a used one with less than 60,000 miles for less than $20 grand?🤔 Maybe next year in February i get me a 2019 Pilot.
I really wish they would have kept the older boxy style in previous gen pilots. It was more unique and they drove great, this new design that I believe started in 2016 just made them look like every other suv in this class. It's not a bad look, just makes it less notable.
I can understand why people would say this; but after a while the boxy exterior style can get rather boring, this exterior style of the Honda Pilot offers a fresh take on the exterior style of the vehicle.
Just bought a 2018 EX-L, and I love it. Better than the Toyota Highlander we owned, and better than my wife’s Subaru Outback Touring. Though, I do like the Subaru quite a bit. There are just a few things that, for me, make the Pilot just a bit nicer. The seats are more comfortable in the Pilot, and I think the seat heaters work better.
The password I test drove felt a little bouncy side to side over dips and bumps in the road. I would not expect this from a firm suspension. Did you experience this ?
Gotta say. This presenter is probably the best on UA-cam right now. I've watched a ton of review videos for a recent purchase (ended up with an Odyssey) and his are the best. Whats the dudes name? No answer with a quick Google. Nothing on the UA-cam videos or the KBB channels About page. Anyway. Great content. Keep it up. EDIT: Also wheres the long term 2018 Odyssey update? Been waiting for it.
Enjoyed watching this. Because i made purchase decision in 2016 from this review. you rocked same as last time. Enjoyed the video. i wish 2016 also had at least carplay and AA..
randomrazr I like it and don’t mind in the least that it looks like it’s sibling the Odyssey. If you’re getting something in this class, ones concern with how you look out on the road falls down on the priority list I suspect.
Isn't this the same place where Micah reviews the 2016 Pilot? Anyways, my mum has the 2016 version and I think it's nicer than this one in terms of design. Also, she has the white version. However, I think this car looks gorgeous in a darker colour like black/blue/green.
To each his/her own. I have a 2018 Ridgeline with the infotainment system without the knob. Everyone complains about this for some reason. I just use the controls on the steering column 100% of the time while driving to change the station and sound as well as cycle through the display. This was a waste of time for Honda to address such a trivial complaint. Now the head unit looks jacked with this 1 protruding button sticking out.
Micah! video on Thursday?!!!! Idk, its not about watching a car review video, its just about how you guys perform in the review video. Pls, I want your humour on a 4runner video.
I’m super happy with my 2017 exl and this one has too much feature for me plus don’t like the front end as much and wow price gone up a lot as well, overall I love my pilot second best vehicle I ever own
@@luisgutierrez2431 hello, the Honda Pilot is still super fun to drive now with three kids and recently honda offer to buy it back for 38,000 I originally paid 43 brand new back in 2017 and now with 64,000 miles
@@luisgutierrez2431 the 2019 and up I wouldn’t get those since those with the new grille design and the awd is super bad, I bought the exl no towing package, diamond pearl white with the v6 290hp
The only complaint my teen kids had of this vehicle was the wheel well obstructing their foot placement in the 3rd row seat. However, no mention was made of it in this video. We have yet to make a decision between the Pilot or the Ascent. Has anyone else run in to this issue? Or is this a non-issue with the Pilot and shouldn't be considered in the decision process?

Toyota had nothing close to this SUV.
Did you do it!
This man should be have his own television series.
I second it!
Third it
I fifth it... or something. Idk.
I sixth it!
Indeed
Tripple Micah!! You lot are spicing up your effects!! I dig it!
I want one! lol!
By far the most entertaining car review I have ever seen. Micah... you are truly gifted. You guys are totally having fun and it comes through to the viewers. Please credit the technicians and engineers behind your videos.
Micah is hands down the best KBB reviewer!
Micah's sense of humor is out of this world.
Yeah he's a funny dude.
When KBB makes a video for a Honda, they go all out
Google it either fanboys or Honda pays them
calvinBawesome_1 i think Acura technically lol
The video editing is the best I’ve seen so far, accents the humor
I like the rapid-fire style of this review!
Micah ! mighty fun video brother , i enjoyed the crap out of it .
krazy bzs We had fun making it. Cheers!

You took this review to the next level my dude

Micah! I hope your hand is ok! Looks like it got caught when you did the trunk scene at 1:08
Micah, you got great sense of humor and your crew as well. I Enjoy your reviews and the grip you got with your viewers. Keep it up brother. Keep them coming. Love the editing and best part here is the all round camera scenes. 😊
Best part of this video is your shirt with the Trans Am.

I'm aiming for an EGOT. ;)
Micah made KBB’s video reviews relevant again! 👏🏻
Thanks for recommending this over the Sorento and Durango in Twitter. :) best reviewer ever
Lots of good features compare to the 2013 I own, they are really reliable vehicles, in 5+ years have not have any issues other than a tire pressure monitor valve. Great work on the energy and post production of the video.
Yeah, my mom's 2009 model was working just fine until some idiot didn't stop at a traffic stop and crashed into her vehicle
@@Ryanbros Early this year the same thing happened to me a well, maintained 2000 Dodge Intrepid, one idiot did not stop a traffic stop and totaled it.
Great job Micah!!
I hated this review because Tim got fired for no reason! 😄
Rickie Khosla wait tim got fired
You guys have the best videos; simple, fun to watch, and brilliant info graphics. Thank you!!!!
I like how KBB keeps their review videos short and sweet. Others take note!!!
I love this vehicle. Probably going to get this after my civic! Thanks for the awesome and entertaining vehicle review
Very enjoyable video. Very informative and hilarious. I have never laughed so hard and gained so much knowledge at the same in a review video. Great job!
That multiplicity of Micahs tripped me out! 😨
Great video! Thanks for uploading on a Thursday.
Great job. What video editing program do you use?
KBBs review aren't boring... Even 15 mts will feel shorter due to ur comical touches..👍
7:50 You still got it buddy!
I like this Honda SUV. I wonder if i can buy a used one with less than 60,000 miles for less than $20 grand?🤔
Maybe next year in February i get me a 2019 Pilot.
Love your work guys!! So fun to watch and informative
Honda pilot and honda CR-V All year models are amazing...

Micah you’re the man i enjoy watching your show mate huge amount of fun i’d say that honda pilot is the king of midsize suv very solid reliable car
Thanks, Huss. Cheers!
Wait, is today Monday?
yout0be1person We’re aiming to increase our output. Look for more Thursday videos in the future.
@@MicahMuzio sounds awesome
7:58 Wasn’t that a Pilot behind the Pilot?
Also on the beginning as well
Their camera car is a 2nd gen Pilot. You'll see it hanging out in quite a few of their videos. Which honestly, tells you everything you need to know.
MPrime Oh that Honda’s suck?
MPrime That second gen pilot went to Lapaz and back last year as a chase car for the Baja 1000, best camera car ever! ;)
Joshua Daniel yea
The password I test drove felt a little bouncy side to side over dips and bumps in the road. I would not expect this from a firm suspension. Did you experience this ?
So in terms of driving and handling which do you like better, the pilot or the ascent?
Micah great video. Based on the credits I was surprised to find that you did the music too.
Andrew Edwards True story. Same thing with essentially all KBB videos. I written a lot of music over the years. :)
Love when you use the Hell out of “PROP TIM” Poor Tim. LMAO!
He takes a verbal beating with grace and dignity.
Any review of the base version? Most of us cannot afford top models like this one.
This was refreshingly awesome!
glad you're back Micah! where do you get those cool t-shirts from?
SJ blipshift!

my fav car review channel
There are just days when kbb is inspired on editing the video .
Micah is the best!
Would love to be cruising around in the new Pilot.
I still haven't figured out if this is a minivan or a SUV.
While I'm not a fan of the pilot I am a fan of kbb. This was a really nice review of an aggressively bland vehicle. Good job.
bland? in what way?
1:36 creative way to display seating practicality. Really good
car is nice. just hate the facct it looks so much like a VAN
randomrazr I like it and don’t mind in the least that it looks like it’s sibling the Odyssey. If you’re getting something in this class, ones concern with how you look out on the road falls down on the priority list I suspect.
You want something this spacious with a "cool" factor....GLS would be your only option but the question is, do u have 100k?
No it doesn't
I don’t see the minivan looks on it... it’s an SUV..
I see van too though I do like the refresh better than last year's model. Good job Honda
Is the one touch sliding 2nd row seat available on the Ex? I thought you had to go to the EXL to get this feature?
Best review so far. detailed and informative!
No 360 view camera, that's a deal breaker for me. Went with the Kia Sorento with all the bells and whistles including a 360 camera
Dang it Micah. You too good bro. Nailed it.
Isn't this the same place where Micah reviews the 2016 Pilot? Anyways, my mum has the 2016 version and I think it's nicer than this one in terms of design.
Also, she has the white version. However, I think this car looks gorgeous in a darker colour like black/blue/green.

If I wanted to play music out of the USB drive while connecting my iPhone for carplay how would I do that ?
Does honda pilot 2019 have the traffic sign recognition?
This is so much better than the new top gear
Micah! video on Thursday?!!!! Idk, its not about watching a car review video, its just about how you guys perform in the review video. Pls, I want your humour on a 4runner video.
Isn’t this the last year’s review and you just uploaded it again?!
he is my fav reviewer!
You b
I’m super happy with my 2017 exl and this one has too much feature for me plus don’t like the front end as much and wow price gone up a lot as well, overall I love my pilot second best vehicle I ever own
Question? I know it's been three years since you posted this message, can you kindly tell me how the pilot is holding up since you purchased it?
@@luisgutierrez2431 hello, the Honda Pilot is still super fun to drive now with three kids and recently honda offer to buy it back for 38,000 I originally paid 43 brand new back in 2017 and now with 64,000 miles
Thank you for the feed back I'm currently looking to buy a 2018 or 19, but so many not good reviews online regarding the pilot .
@@luisgutierrez2431 the 2019 and up I wouldn’t get those since those with the new grille design and the awd is super bad, I bought the exl no towing package, diamond pearl white with the v6 290hp
Honda still needs the 360 camera and better sound system at higher Touring and above models
I love Honda as much as the next guy, but I’d also like a review of the new ascent!
TheWingmanOne Media Already shot it. Coming soon!
Can you please do a video of the 2019 Redesigned Hyundai Elantra which will arrive in dealerships soon?
This was one awesome review I must say 👍👍
I'm a Honda fan, but I have to admit the best car of this video was the Pontiac - in Micah's shirt.
My parents got the silver Honda and we love it but the chairs get dirty quickly
Don’t fire Tim, we love him! Hahaha! Great video as always!
love the feature that the 3rd row seat can be reclined, which my 2017 pliot does not have
When can we expect a review for the new 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe?
kudos to Tim for keeping his composure after the bracelet insult. Especially if the bracelet is what i think it is.
The only complaint my teen kids had of this vehicle was the wheel well obstructing their foot placement in the 3rd row seat. However, no mention was made of it in this video. We have yet to make a decision between the Pilot or the Ascent. Has anyone else run in to this issue? Or is this a non-issue with the Pilot and shouldn't be considered in the decision process?
Another Savagegeese doppelganger sighting at the 00:43 videomark.
Great review!
So ... you get nothing with the LX trim level?
Good job on this video!👍
Can you remote start it just by talking to your remote key?
I gave up after two minutes; I wanted to know how the vehicle handled driving on the road and off the road.
You know it kinda looks good
my mom has a 2018 pilot and its a awesome car.
So still no significant sound system?
I think you guys need to upgrade your Camara pilot for this one
Mr. Ash someday ;)
