5 Your Guide to Honda Pilot Trim Options When it comes time to choose the 2017 Honda Pilot trim level that best fits the needs of your family, there are a few things you ll want to keep in mind. Of course, the decision is ultimately yours, but we want to make sure you pick a vehicle you ll be happy with for years to come, so here are a few things we suggest you do before making a final decision. 1. Consider your needs right now and in a couple of years: Many buyers don t think very far into the future. But the fact is that if you purchase a new vehicle, it s going to take three to five years to pay it off. And your needs over that timeline can change drastically. So, be sure to keep the future in mind when you re choosing your trim level. 2. Consider your budget right now first: While your future needs are important, you also want to make sure you re going to be comfortable making your car payments on time and in full for the next three to five years. Be sure the total monthly payment stays well within your comfortable range so you don t find yourself in a financial pickle later. 3. Consider adding a feature or two just for fun: Buying a new car is an exciting adventure, so be sure to treat yourself a bit to something special just because. Keeping in mind your budget, maybe splurge for an upgraded audio system if that s important to you or heated seats if you plan to move to somewhere with colder weather. It s the little things that really make a difference in your day-to-day travels. Of course, when you shop for your new 2017 Honda Pilot, be sure to shop with a dealership you know and trust. Having a relationship with your dealership can mean you re the first to know about special deals, service specials, and local events.
