morning all, and welcome. this place exists because every family SUV forum i joined was either one brand only or full of people arguing about horsepower. here we care about whether the third row is usable, whether the car seat fits behind a tall dad, and what breaks at 90k.
the one thing that is different here: under your name there is a rides line. please fill it in when you sign up with what you drive (year, model, trim if you know it) and how many kids or regular passengers ride with you. "2019 Pilot, 3 kids, one still rear facing" tells the person answering more than a paragraph would.
rules, the short version:
- year, model and engine on every question. a 2016 Pilot and a 2023 Pilot share a name and almost nothing else.
- car seat advice is from parents, not from installers. if you are not sure, a certified passenger safety tech (CPST) checks installs for free in most towns. we will point you to one.
- if you sell cars, work at a dealer, a lender or an auction, say so when you post about them.
- no selling in threads. blur plates and VINs in photos of paperwork.
that is it. go post in Family haulers if you are shopping or living with one, Service if something rattles, Buying if you want to talk about what you paid.
