Honda pilot is an occasional car and not the type you use daily or often cause it got less durability and are not strong for Nigerian roads

The Xc on the other hand is durable, strong and can last you a life time atleast and quite easy to manage compared to Pilot.

Anyway my one piece The choice is urs....

absolute rubbish, I used a 2005 pilot for three years as daily driver with only regular servicing as the maintenance done on it, I don't know where you got your own from though.

Op, you'll have to test drive the two then make your choice though personally, I would pick the Volvo

The XC90 is a luxury SUV, pilot is a midclass SUV, they are very reliable. Personally, I'd say, switch the Pilot and compare an XC90 with an Acura MDX 06. The Acura is better in comfort and offers bigger storage and more luxurious features but where the Volvo outshines is in its crash tests reports.

I've owned both cars (08 pilot though)but still can't compare both at all, XC90 is on another level of comfort for me

The pilot feels too bulky and unbalanced at high speeds too, body falls apart and doesn't age so gracefully.

The engine is silent and the parts are quite cheap, though the XC90 is still cheaper to maintain

The pilot won't forgive u if you use wrong fluids, especially on the tranny, but the XC90 06 model can take a higher level of abuse.

I'll only advise you to leave the XC90 if you're based in some states that makes it very difficult to get parts, if you're in Lagos or environs or the whole of South East, my pick will be the XC90

Bro, are you certain about this?
Been eyeing XC90, meant for my old folks in the SE, but I've been wary about the parts being available over there. Kindly clarify, pls.
