Family Off-Roader // 2023 Honda Pilot Trailsport Review 

I always find Sarah’s reviews unbiased and I come away with a sense of having had a virtual test ride and inspection. Thank you, Sarah. 👍👍👍

Charlie is always a great addition to the videos

That was both surprising and impressive. I didn’t realize Honda made the Pilot so capable. The body shape has grown more interesting again, after what I felt were some bland designs. It was fun seeing the red dirt and natural environs of Sedona instead of high end spas and zillion dollar homes. It was also fun having Charlie along, including getting his take on some of the vehicle features (partially filling in for the necessary absence of Science Sarah). Also fun seeing TFL Tommy’s cameo (not Tommy).

I love how you're so girly, but completely knowledgeable in mechanics and willing to get into it and kinda show and teach us that are dummies in this stuff. And your whole sarcastic vibe is a huge bonus. Love your videos. Thank you

Happy Tuesday Sarah!!! Early Sarah usually means an out of town review of a new vehicle, and always a welcome surprise. 😁 Stay excellent!!!😎

Great to see you out at press events! Always good to take a break from the usual shop stuff.. I'm actually surprised the Pilot can do any of that stuff.. As you mentioned, it'll be used as a family hauler primarily... Good to see it's capable if things turn ugly.

I normally end my days with the hardest-working RU-vidr but today I'm blessed with getting to start my day with Miss Sarah. It's going to be a great day!

Absolutely brilliant filming Sarah, the backdrops really made the shots pop out. A really great choice to film in that area. Thanks.

Sarah and Coffee first thing in the morning. Happy 🎉❤😊

I replaced the stock tires on my wife's 4Runner with those Continentals. Almost 40,000 miles later they're still in great shape. Would absolutely recommend if you want something a little beefier than road tires but don't want to put KO2s or the like on your vehicle.

Great review, as always! Glad Charlie got to tag along with you!

Appreciate the Isuzu shoutout. Loved my early 90's Rodeo. V6 "off-road" pkg felt way more capable than I ever asked it to be in the flatlands of Illinois. One of my favorite memories is my kids pronounced it Wo Dee Wo.

another excellent review type thingy Sarah, thank you! good to see and hear Charlie's comments 🤗🤗

Always a pleasure to see one of your reviews. It was like usual, very informative and very entertaining. Great fun to watch and learn about a new vehicle. Very Bueno! Thank you Sarah.

Thanks for the info on the diff temp Charlie!

This is so nice to see Honda putting in so much thought into the off-road segment. They’re really getting something in line for everyone: R, Si, Sport or Touring Civic, Accord in sporty or hybrid trim, CRV all NA or hybrid, HR-V, Passport, Pilot, Ridgeline and now something to conquer the meatballs! And did your nails match the car? Fantastic.

Great job on the video Sarah! Thanks for making it.

WooHoo 🥳 an early morning Sarah surprise 😊♥️

Sarah….always impressed with how knowledgeable you are about the vehicles. Also enjoy your presentation. Kurt

wow... thanks for bringing back the nostalgia @10:22. I actually worked at SIA (Subaru Isuzu Automotive) in IN. I worked on the final assembly teams for the 95.5 and 96 Rodeos... Hadn't thought about that truck in forever!! Love the videos! Really appreciate all your hard work and effort in making them. :)

Always love the videos, always like Charlie's comments, they are insightful

You always do a great job on your car reviews, Keep up the great work Sarah.

Perfect thing to watch while eating lunch. Thanks Sarah!

WOW ! Sarah field work..Scenery is great too !

Another great video from my favorite RU-vidr.

Well, that was a nice surprise - did not expect a new video untill tomorrow night , and now I get a new one the evening before I thought I would - happying! Cool review - and the landscape was amazing!!! Would love to you mountainbiking there, some day. Thank you for what you do and Stay Awesome!

Great job Sarah! Thank you!

By far the best review so far. Got a Ridgeline a year ago. Looks like it's already time to trade it in. Thank you for the honest review and full of great information.

great vid as always, and beautiful trails. Hi Charlie!

It's great to hear Charlie!

Thanks for another great video Sarah.

I love your style! You are so cute, funny which makes it easy to watch the whole video without the monitone boredome that happens with other videos! Great job.

Heck yes! Glad you got to get out into some neature in beautiful Sedona.

This was very informative and practical since i was debating on choosing a new vehicle and this is more suited to Canadian Winter with the type of changes they did and the reliability of Honda technology. This debate between this and a Toyota Equivalent aka the Highlander is really helping. Thank you 😀

Another fantastic review Sarah , one can never go wrong buying a Honda !!

Love your reviews!

Love your CHANNEL Ms. Sarah In Tuned

It’s always really interesting when you get to go on these manufacturer events.

I love those back up lamps they sure fit nice and look real nice

Great car reviews, Great Builds, what more could you wish for, definitely hooked on your channel, a massive fan 😀👍

Very informative review Sarah👋

the off-road test was done in some really beautiful terrain, wow.

Cool review Sarah 👍👍

Great review! I love this vehicle

Looking fabulous popcycle Sara !

I'm so happy that all my favorite car youtubers have attended this Honda event. Sarah, the Topher, and Tedward...there is nothing more I could wish for in terms of getting coverage on a new and exciting model.

Great review. I hope you get more press trips.

Sonoma-n-Tuned, it’s nice to see other parts of Arizona. The red clay contrasts nicely with that paint job. Looks like a surprisingly capable off-roader.

MORNING SARAH?!!!! Hell yeah!!!💯

I enjoy your quirky, silly sense of humor! The car stuff is cool, too.

Awesome as always 👌👌👌👌👌🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Love your videos and your sense of humor! Also the Tommy Boy joke.

Thanks for the review Sarah. I have a '06 Pathfinder SE Off-Road. This seems pretty similar. Other not not being as lifter and not having a full frame and transverse engine.

Liked it, thanks! Any first impressions vs. the Ridgeline? You were kind of blown away how the Ridgeline just casually ate up your worst torture climb. Looking forward to the full nerd-out, having a compare/contrast, and seeing if the Pilot can match the Ridgeline. Stay cool.

Sarah is the kind of girl that will go with you to Pull & Save on a Sunday so you can get extra parts for all your " projects ". I just luv that about her. One of my favorite past times is walking the junkyards looking for spares to keep my old cars going.

Looks like a great family hauler and light weekend adventure mountain bike hauler.

I love that there is a cup holder and a snorkel tube in one

I’ve gone with a new Subaru Outback Touring XT. For the $$$ it provides just as much if not more cargo space, great seating and safety features with great off-road abilities.

Amazing car review Sarah! I want to the same but just for fun when my Kia Sportage arrives next month! Thank you! I almost forgot, you have great sense of humor!😂

Huge upgrade from a Family hauler to something that can be used offroad. Great review !

I've been thinking about a Pilot but I'd love to get that Trailsport for my wife; it looks quite capable. Always good to see Charlie participating...

Sarah IS intelligent....and very pretty. Loving the detail in every demo. thanks🍪

Hey Sarah, that’s great Honda addressed the overheating issue or at least I hope so it certainly seems a lot more legit. Big fan of Honda, even though I’ve never actually owned one if I didn’t have to have a full size 4 Wheel Drive truck I honestly think I would be driving a Ridgeline only because I can’t fit in a Tacoma😢 absolutely beautiful trail there. Look awesome on the video.🐧🐧🐧👍(The three penguins are for luck)

Sarah, I'm a car enthusiast just like you, and Honda is my favorite brand. I drive a 2005 Acura RSX Type S with a 6 speed manual transmission.

You ARE AWESOME!

As a Nintendo fan, it was a cool edit to see the "multilink" edit you did lol, thanks Sarah :D and dope car for sure.

This is the cutest review of a car I have ever seen )

Sarah: Lift? I don't need no stinkin lift! Awesome review as always, Sarah!

The camera work was lush. Well done!

Looks like a well built unit!!! 👌🇨🇦

Agree.Trying to do it all usually means it can't do one thing well.

You are a very smart cookie

Awesome I was hoping you were going to review this model Pilot

This was a fun one. 👍

Knowledge and beauty

I love that they brought back the box style instead of that hideous egg shaped soccer mom style

Wow this impressive. Honda has always had my curiosity but this latest generation of Hondas has my attention

"You can tell that its good off road by the way the tire is." 🤭Thank you for bringing some levity to the stressful proposition of buying a new car. Awesome video!

Sedona is awesome, have fun out there!

I’ve been happy with the Honda mower I bought last summer maybe I will try one of thier vehicles next.

Another great video to enjoy, thanks. I only regret the Honda Pilot is not available in Australia.

The removable fender well is necessary to get access to the timing belt and water pump. Previous gen service interval was 125k miles if I'm not mistaken.

Aluminum + Nubbin = Like on the video ☺️ Video & Pilot are great too!

Nice review, looked like this was the Coffeepot trail. I always walked this trail and only saw Jeeps driving along.

Points I remember from this video are nubbins and great barbecue in Georgia 😂

Thank you, great review…I miss Sedona! (LOL @ Tom & Fosters!)

Miss those old Isuzu trucks and SUV's. My dad had a Red 1st gen Rodeo with manual locking hubs. That thing was a tank and ran forever.

Currently driving a 2nd Gen Pilot, glad to know that the new version meets your approval. Might have to look into it when I upgrade.

Your reaction to the lack of beans was funny.

The Conti's are pretty decent tires. Better offroad capability than the regular all seasons that come on most SUV's

I don't have a long history with Honda autos but I do with the bikes. Honda's philosophy has always been to do everything very well and not have a standout in any one area. I drove one of the 1st Ridgeline pickups and found that it carried that line of engineering.

I want to see the video of Charlie hanging out with the TFL dudes! The camera angle at 4:26 was perfect to show how steep the hill was. Can you set your camera up like that to show the steepness of the hill you use on your tests?

I don't go off road on purpose. That said, if given a choice in a particular vehicle, I would choose the off road version for many reasons. There are some negatives to that choice but I believe there are more positives. Nice Review!

complex design , and air flow mass sensor , is interesting spot , check again . and if you get the chance , please check in the sand , awd suv mostly fail in sand , like beach drive etc .

Hopefully you will have a chance to do a full in shop review. I’m a little curious about the towing capabilities. Since its an option in drive modes. With the new V6 and rear drive line changes, it probably tow’s well. Nice vehicle overall. Thank you kind Lady.

I enjoy the apprehension when you do brake tests. Makes us wonder if the car has brakes

I must say: I miss your lab coat a tiny bit but much respect your On Location Resourceful Review 👍

Another great review Sarah! Now if Honda would only bring back the Element properly equipped to compete with the Bronco that would be cool.

Nice job Honda.

Wow it's still daylight here in the UK and there's a Sarah-n-Charlie vid! Would like to see you do a normal review but this was a very interesting ad hoc take. 🙂🙃🙂🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧🐧
