Hard Plastics are all around the car, i expect a little better from Honda. Navigation is very big and easy to read. The dashboard is a little button friendly. The Seats are very supportive though. Nothing special is going on under the hood either. I hope to see the Pilot come turn into a crossover in it’s next redesign. Competitors: Chevy Traverse, Toyota Highlander, Nissan Pathfinder, Ford Explorer, Dodge Durango, Mazda CX-9, Kia Sorento
