Honda's fuel economy specs are right on for the Pilot, assuming that you
operate it as an SUV...not too much over speed limits. It handles rough
dirt/gravel/rocky desert and mountainous roads well, on one occasion: high
desert road to north rim Grand Canyon (Toroweap), survived entering an
extremely deep and hardened rut at some 60 MPH (shouldn't have done that),
tossing front end skyward and violently to the right, horrendous
crunch/thumps and all, from which it recovered with what I assumed had to be
a severely damaged wheel and front end. Alignment shop later determined
that no damage was suffered although they had to pry out some rocks wedged
into control arms...no alignment needed. This is not to say that the other
models you mentioned couldn't have fared as well.
Maneuverability is superb, turning radius surprisingly tight. The only
gripe I have to report after some 10K miles is driver's window which
intermittently fails to up/down auto. I continue to enjoy all that I've
paid for, all that Honda claims, and remain completely satisfied.
