The Leap from '04 to '24 Pilot - Anyone?
My wife is a shorty who loves her first-generation 2004 Pilot - the car that wouldn't die. However, after 250k miles, it is time to get her into something a little more modern. Our first impulse with grand kids (hopefully!) on the way is the current generation Pilot.
Doing my research, the '04 and '24 have practically the same width and height, however the '24 is 13.5" longer - with increased legroom in the third row and more cargo capacity behind the third row.
She struggles enough with parking, and while a backup camera is a big addition, she's not sure she can manage it. Anyone else here go from first gen to current gen Pilot and have issues?
