IMHO
Both are fine but they are not in each others league. The RX is a
luxo SUV that does not want to get dirty. Beautifully finished with
top quality material.

The Pilot is closer to, but not quite a true SUV. As for or its looks,
beauty is really in the eye of the beholder. For me, neither the
Pilot or the Highlander win any awards. If you need a true SUV/4X4
than you should be looking at the 4Runner or the Nissan Pathfinder.
The Pilot and the Highlander are close but not good for much more than
going on forest trails. The rest will get you to the country club in
the snow. (Given the amount of snow we had in the North East last
winter that is a BIG plus :-)
