Regardless of practicality, this belongs in an engineering hall of fame for audacity. 'I'm going to make an engine head from JB Weld' is the kind of energy we need more of in the maker community.

This is wild. I watched the video and I honestly can't believe it worked at all. The epoxy head actually sealed and the engine fired up. Obviously it wouldn't last long term, but as a proof of concept it's incredible. Really shows how much engineering is about understanding materials and stress ...

The interior quality is what really sets this apart from competitors in my opinion. The use of premium materials and the attention to detail is something you definitely notice when you're inside the cabin.

Cost of ownership is solid, but what about long-term satisfaction? Design language matters. The Pilot looks generic next to what Kia and even Volkswagen are doing. That's why I say Honda is coasting.

The 3-row market is brutal right now. Everyone's cramming more features into lower prices. Honda needs to step up or risk losing market share. The Pilot can't coast on reputation alone anymore.

I've owned a Volvo before, and the maintenance costs were indeed higher than other brands. How often do you service your XC60?
