I thought the vendor was screwed also, then I went to six other gas stations, different vendors. And at each one I was able to squeeze between 4.5 to 5.5 more...
There are reasons for the signs that tell you not to top off your tank at the gas station. Gas pumps are equipped with vapor recovery systems to prevent...

After stopping on a very moderate up hill (like my house's driveway, or at intersections), when I move my foot from the brake to the fuel pedal, the car will...
Dear Oakwood--, I don't know of any vehicle that will not rollback on a slight incline. Most are not idled high enough to not roll or roll forward for the...
I haven't really noticed that to be a "problem" with my Pilot. I did notice once that it rolled back a little when I let off the brake on a hill, but I didn't...
Thanks guys for the input. It is not really a "problem" or causing any safety concern. Just different experiences. I have a 1995 Camry and a 2001 Tundra, both...
Hi, I'm a newbie. My husband just bought a 2005 Honda Pilot EX (used, 10K miles). We are leaving on a trip to Santa Barbara this saturday. We need a roof...

Let it break in a little first. Honda engines have a habit of needing to "loosen up" a bit during break-in, then they get better mileage. We've found that...
Congrats Allan -- I hope you enjoy the Pilot! I have a '05 EX-L (Goodyear) and I get gas mileage similiar to you. If I drive very conservatively then I can...
Our '03 EX came w/Goodyear, I recall it was the only tire that they supplied on all trim levels in late 2002. Don't know much about the Bridgestone but would...
