I personally like the name.
My problem is with the design. |

| They should have named it "Buck Rogers". |

| Pilot is a strange name for a car too! Then Lincoln had to go and re-badge the explorer and call it the Aviator...who's gonna get inline for the name Treeline, or Ridgecrest to copy Honda now? |

They both depreciate at a rapid rate? ;) |

| HOO PILOT |
| Yikes! :eek: One can only hope the final product looks a LOT better than the concept vehicle! Which end goes first? |

It's a stupid name, just like Avalanche or Canyon.
I still wonder why the Pilot Pen Company never raised a stink about the Honda Pilot like they did with the PalmPilot PDA?:p I also wish I could find my PalmPilot; it'll be a collectors item one day. ;) |

| I always thought it was strange Honda would name another one of their vehicles 'Pilot'. They already made a 'Pilot' -- it's an ATV. |

The Odyssey was an ATV, too. I think the Passport was as well. I guess they didn't have to go through all the rigamaroll for coming up with new names...just recycle ones they already had.
Ridgeline isn't too bad....I still think it looks like a Honda mini-Avalanche. |

Trademarks only apply if there is likelihood of confusion.
Pen (and paper) organizer companies were already in the electronic organizer market. (mostly paper organizers with a calculator or phone book device).
The automotive market is fairly far removed. |

LOL.
You will notice that "FORD" has themes going with it's current line of vehicles. All the names start with "F", except the outgoing models.
All their SUV's have a common theme:
Explorer, Expedition, Excursion ("Adventure")
The merc's do too:
Navigator, Aviator ("flight")
Dumb idea, then again I like the name "RidgeLine" |

It's going to be interesting to see if the production vehicle's front end looks the same as the prototype.
For some reason I keep seeing a similarity here (not necessarily a bad thing ;) )

Ha!!!!! Would that include "Fubar"????
:2:
(sorry - couldn't resist)
Chevy has done some of the same over the years:
Chevelle, Camero, Cavalier, Corvette, Corvair, Citation, etc..... |
