Nice vid, Scotty. I have both a Pilot and a Ranger. Good vehicles. FYI- The 2003-2015 Honda Pilot has a 5-speed transmission, not an 6-speed; and some of the earliest models were notorious for transmission problems. I think they resolved those problems with the 2006, which is the model I have. It has 210,000 miles and the transmission is fine. All Honda transmissions require consistent fluid changes every 30,000 miles if you want to avoid problems.

I only sold it because I needed a larger truck. If I had the money and the space, I would buy mine back and keep it for life.

I love my wife's 2008 xB. I got it used several years ago for 5 grand. When I found out it had the same engine as the Camry it piqued my interest. The huge back doors were great for getting infants in and out in their cradle car seats. It's light weight and has good power. Very happy with it.

Your no-nonsense maintenance videos are a true gem!! Thank you!

I bought a 2005 pilot many years ago with 147,000 miles. I drove it up to 247,000 miles. Only did regular maintenance. I sold it to a relative and she is still driving it with over 275,000 miles with no problems and it still burns no oil.

Great video, back when Pilots were well made. I wanted one of the newer ones, but they are prone to burn oil (1QT per 1000 miles....) Honda seriously needs to fix this problem, something they have known by so many customers complaining.

It's just like all the other manufacturers experiencing this problem... It's a result of using stupid thin 0w oil and 8,000+ mile oil change intervals. Change it every 4-5k and it might not be AS bad but until they stop using water as oil for fuel economy they're gonna burn it

Would love to hear Scotty’s take on the new Pilot

It is NOT easy finding affordable parts for a 1st gen 2005 Scion xB. I'm fairly certain they don't have warehouses full of rear hatches and clutch cables. Had to have clutch cables replaced shortly after I had the clutch master and slave cylinders replaced. The cables took awhile to find. 😬

A decent used car here in Minnesota is EXTREMELY hard to come by. Most people are asking anywhere from 40-60% over blue book value if its at all nice. Value cars are almost nonexistent. For example that Scion TC you mentioned are around 14K. For that money you might well get something else new.

I agree with your sentiment except brand new economical small cars these days are 25-30k!

You mentioned the decades of cooperation between Ford and Mazda. IMHO, Ford would have been better off rebadging Mazda vehicles e.g. the Mazda 6, Mazda 3 etc. than developing its versions of such vehicle types. Thanks for the background info on Scion; I wondered why Toyota with its excellent rep came out with that brand.

First gen Acura TSX is also another one. The problem is the nice ones with lower miles are getting hard to find and over 10k when you can find em.

Happy 70th birthday Scotty. Sorry im late. Thanks for all you do. Your videos are my go to at youtube university

Regarding the Honda Pilot, here in California it's common to see the 3-Way (not the Federal 2-Way) Catalytic Converters go bad at about 160,000 miles. Consequently, the Check Engine Light (CEL) illuminates and hence you can't get them to smog certify and subsequently can't register these cars in California until the Converters and Oxygen Sensors are replaced. The cost of this is almost prohibitive as Honda no longer stocked these and though they were available thru the aftermarket, the cost for the converters, sensors and labor to install all this was close to $5500. So unless the car was in pristine condition and you were madly in love with it, even though it still ran fine swallowing that amount of money to repair a 15 year old car with 160K on it was a pretty big gulp....BUT....$5500 is a lot cheaper than $35,000-$55,000 for a new vehicle.

I've known people that owned Ford Rangers and they could hold up, if you maintained them, and that goes without saying. I've go a neighbor with one that has the 2.3 engine with the manual transmission. It's about 30 years old and he drives it all the time.

I was excited when I saw Aisin on the transmission of my new Camry because my old Camry's had the same great transmissions. Then I drove it home. I wondered if Toyota forgot to put fluid in the transmission. The dealer promised me the transmission was serviced correctly. I'll need to depend on their word since I can't check it myself. The dealership mechanic told me the slipping, mis-shifts and searching for a gear were normal and they've gotten lots of complaints but should be fine. After all, I had a sixty thousand mile warranty if it broke. I quit driving it as much to keep from using up the mileage warranty. I'd normally be out of basic warranty before the year was up. The only thing Toyota honored with my new Camry warranty was a plastic pen falling out of a fender.

Honda's are always a good gift. Thanks Scotty!

I got a 2004 Honda Crv. Bought that car for 3500 bucks with 136k miles on it. I use it as my work travel vehicle. That thing has 220k miles on it, and it still drives like a charm. No check engine, no transmission issues. Knocking on wood that it keeps driving like this for another 80k miles.

Bout a 2006 TC scion this year 2023 with 200000 miles for basically 3000 and couldn’t be happier she’s a gem perfect a to b daily driver reliable af, and fun to drive.

Wasn't the Pilot just a redressed Rodeo? I was a technician that worked at Honda's warehouse. I remember my contact calling the Hodeo.

Scotty the pilot is most definitely a 5 speed. And there is no turning on and off on the awd. Its always there. Source: owned an 05 for last 7 years

Scotty, I own a 2015 Civic Coupe, and I’m thinking if I change it for a 2013 GTI 2.0T, or for a 2016 Ford Focus hatchback with M/T, is it reliable? Thank you

The 3L is a very good engine the 4 liter V6 is an absolute Money Pit as it ages because it has a timing chain on the rear and one on the front that we're out the the timing chain guides and you have to pull the engine to replace the rear timing chain components very expensive repair at about 150,000 MI

scotty with the 2003 honda pilot in this video: "these cars are ultra reliable and the transmission still works." also scotty, in another video: "avoid the 03 and 04 model years of pilots"

My little Scion xD is nimble, quick, and easy to park with the Toyota 1.8L and 4spd AT. Fun little car and well made, too.

Keep up the great work scotty!!

Facts 😂

Hey Scotty, what do you think about 2008 Porsche Cayenne with 3.5L engine? and 2002 Benz ML320 ?

Unless you needed an SUV that big it would be better to get a CRV. It has a timing chain that can last the life of the engine vs the pilots V6 which has a timing belt that needs to be replaced every 100k and costs 1k to do. The 2.4 in the CRV strains the transmission less so that would also likely last longer. 1st gen pilots should be avoided as they are made by Isuzu and are not nearly as reliable and tend to rust out as they are body-on-frame construction.

I love the ford ranger. I have an 05 it is a great truck.

I remember the road rage Scion!😂😂😂😂

Great video scotty!

The 4-cylinders from those Scions (and Camrys and Rav4s from the same years) are starting to have very common piston ring issues and consume copious amounts of oil. They aren't as good as a lot of Toyota's other engines. Some examples will last like a Toyota should - 300,000 or 400,000 miles and up. But there's a higher than usual percentage (for Toyotas) of catastrophic engine failure with them.

Scion was the best bang for the buck in cheap, reliable cars..

3.5 VTEC?😍😍😍 She’s not even broken in!!!

Excellent video as always

I have an 08 Honda Element. The engine is bullet proof. I am going to get the trans worked on. Cheaper than a new car. We love that car.

My roommate has a 97' Ford Ranger that runs like a clock! Only a repair on the gas tank and has 120,000 original miles 🎉

Toyota wanted to sell cheaper cars without affecting the main brand perceived market value. They can not appear to be too cheap compared to competitors like Honda, or Americans will think it is a cheap car. It does not make sense, but that is the USA market. Like the iPhone or Jeep, Americans think they get more for paying more even though they do not.

I love scions ❤

I really wish that you would have also mentioned that the pilots before that one or made by Zuzu and they are an absolute hunk of crap they wouldn't even last 100,000 miles before the engine started knocking and broke I do not remember the exact years that Honda partnered with azuzu but I'm sure that they regret that decision for the next 200 years

I agree. It's a good idea but it won't work we do not have a power grid set up to charge all of these electric vehicles

The old Honda pilot transmission will contact the speed sensor and once it is loose like this, your transmission is toast and you can replace speed sensors all day long and they will get destroyed instantly. Don't buy the old Honda Pilots with worn out transmissions. NEVER tow anything with the old Pilot or you will provoke the death of the transmission!
