Buying the 2011 Honda Pilot
No 2011 Honda Pilot is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Before buying the 2011 Honda Pilot, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
What to check on the Pilot
In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Owners filed 293 complaints with NHTSA, most often about air bags, service brakes and steering; have those parts checked. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace.
What the specs mean
Under the hood: the 3.5L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
Plan on about 37 litres per 300 km; the combined rating is 12.4 L/100 km. A 300 km round trip costs roughly $57.66 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,550 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who it is for
It suits anyone who needs a car for a few days, a week or a month without buying one. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
Size and space
The higher seat of an SUV gives a good view of the road in traffic.
Rent it for a week first
Rent the Pilot for a week and see how it fits your life. If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Drive the Pilot on your commute before you commit to it.
Narrowing it down
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Within the 2011 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices.
Money matters
The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $19.22 in fuel. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Ready when you are
Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 2011 Honda Pilot from us first.
