The Car Connection's Take

TCC Rating
8.0
7.6

TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2009 Honda Pilot looks more SUV-like in its second edition, but it has the room of a minivan, along with some notable styling miscues and expensive choices to make from the options list. The 2008 Mitsubishi Endeavor is a mid-pack performer in the crowded SUV/crossover class.
