FWD on the Pilot was simply conjecture. I assumed something as big and heavy as the Pilot wouldn't be offered in FWD, especially with people panicking these days should their car not have it. The Suzuki Kazashi is offered with AWD, I assumed the Pilot would have it; standard. Point taken.

Are you confusing your Ridgeline for an Acura RL?

Only fulltime AWD I'm aware of is the Subaru Tribeca.
Actually, there are lots of SUVs that have full-time AWD systems.

i work as a service advisor for honda, list of problems i know about:
-tranny problems with 03-06 after 80k
-front side motor mounts go out at about 90k
-had 2 with 40k-50k with misfires on all cylinders-turned out it needed a valve adjustment-these 2 came in 3 weeks ago
thats all i can think of, beside these things the pilot is an awesome car

My family has an 03 pilot that we bought a month after it came out. Best looking SUV of that time IMO. So far 2 of the engine mounts of cracked. Other then that the car hasn't really had anything other then fluid changes and tires.

Some small annoying interior faults are
1. The swiveling fan things are fragile, I feel like all the middle center ones are broken.
2. Radio button for foward is sunken in but still works. Just looks annoying.

These things all happened under warranty but my parents never took it in :/

I'm at 100k~ no tranny probs btw
