It’s time to purchase a new set of wheels. “New to you,” anyway. As a consumer, you have to ask yourself the initial question, “Should I buy new or used”? Of course, everyone’s situation is different. Buying a used car over a new car might make more sense for you. One thing is for sure, if you invest your hard-earned money in a vehicle, it’s smart to do your homework to find out if the car you choose is reliable.
Japanese carmakers dominate the reliability surveys with Honda and Toyota both sitting in the top 10. This post will explore two of the shining stars in these Japanese brands’ line-up, the 2018 Honda Pilot and 2018 Toyota Highlander. We will examine and highlight the differences between the two and supply the information you need to make the best decision.

The base-level price on the 2018 Honda Pilot begins at $25,550 MSRP while the 2018 Toyota Highlander post a $29,200 MSRP. Price isn’t always an accurate indicator when determining which car fits your specific needs. It’s essential to consider the features and options each vehicle offers.
Pilot Vs. Highlander
