Back from long trip - Click HERE for Original Thread

We just took our Pilot Touring out on its first long trip - from southern WI to the Boundary Waters area. It was a good test - some highway, some moderate off roading and 10.5 hours in it each way. Overall the vehicle was great. Mileage so-so at about 19 overall. We used our Sport Rack rooftop cargo box for the first time and it worked out great. We really had the vehicle packed down so we definitely needed it. It was also great to have the AWD again on all the dirt roads we encountered (versus the last time we went up in our minivan). Did encounter two minor things - one is a small rattle between our sunroof and the DVD player. Not too horrible. The other is that the passenger side seatbelt locks if you turnaround too far to look at the kiddos. We actually had to pull over at one point because we couldn't get it unlocked. Happened about four times on the trip. We'll have to have that looked at. Overall, it was a great vehicle for a long family trip. The kids seemed quite happy and it must have been quiet because they slept well too :) .
