Glenwood Springs Honda dealer Vista Honda, has the amazing Honda Pilot ready for your family. The 2011 Honda Pilot in Colorado continues to be a high-flying family-friendly SUV thanks to Honda’s focus on comfort and capability in this right-sized eight-passenger vehicle.

Honda has taken a different approach with the Pilot, one which pays off in vast interior volume and refined behavior. Where other SUVs use a decidedly ancient body-on-frame construction method, Honda builds the Pilot as a rugged crossover.

For 2011, Honda has sweetened the equipment selection pot and made the Satellite-Linked Navigation System, previously exclusive to the Pilot Touring, available on the EX-L. All versions include a filtered air conditioning system that keeps passengers in all seats comfortable, a tilt/telescoping steering column, a seven-speaker audio system with subwoofer, tinted glass and a Class III receiver for towing.

Stepping up through the trim levels from LX to EX, EX-L or Touring adds three-zone climate control system, power seats, leather seating surfaces and heated seats, a power moonroof and more. Any way you like your commodious SUV, that’s what you can get in the Pilot.

It’s not just the options list that’s flexible either. All three rows of seats in the Pilot can comfortably accommodate adult-sized passengers. And unlike many of its peers, there’s still room behind the Pilot’s third-row seat. In fact, the 18 cubic feet of cargo space is superior to the trunk space in most mainstream sedans and can easily swallow a full load of groceries or a stroller. There’s even an extra hidden storage compartment that can augment the space by securing its locking lid.

Both rows of rear seats fold down 60/40 to clear a full 87 cubic feet of flat-floored cargo capacity. A full load of passengers will appreciate the second row’s sliding bench seat to ensure sufficient legroom in all positions. The Pilot is further family-friendly by being one of the few vehicles wide enough to allow the use of three LATCH-anchor seats across the second-row bench seat. An additional fourth bambino can be nestled into an additional LATCH position in the third row.

The Pilot’s Advanced Compatibility Engineering body structure keeps everybody safe. The ACE structure directs crash forces around the cabin, as well as helping mitigate frontal collision danger. Standard Vehicle Stability Assist and full airbag coverage are teamed with active front seat head restraints. The Pilot’s sharp handling, stiff structure with plenty of high-strength steel and athletic chassis with fully independent suspension aim to keep you out of trouble in the first place.

The smooth 3.5-liter V6 uses Honda’s revolutionary i-VTEC system to adjust valve timing and lift for more power and efficiency. Variable Cylinder Management is a rare feature on such an advanced overhead cam engine, allowing the Pilot to judiciously deactivate cylinders and run as a four- or three-cylinder engine when possible to boost fuel efficiency. Fuel economy is 17 mpg city and 23 mpg highway for the two-wheel-drive Pilot with a four-wheel drive version paying a miniscule penalty and coming in at 16/22. A five-speed automatic transmission keeps the engine in the heart of its power band and the VTM-4 all-wheel drive system is fully automatic, putting torque where it needs to go, even on soupy surfaces. VTM also has a lock mode that operates in first and second gear at speeds below 18 mph to put the maximum torque on the ground in low-traction conditions.

The 2011 Honda Pilot is garage-friendly, easy on fuel, nimble and comfortable. At $28,045, the 2011 Honda Pilot is also easy on the wallet, despite delivering value as substantial as the shadow its ruggedly hewn good looks throw.

2011 Honda Odyssey in Glenwood Springs

Already America’s top-selling minivan two years running, the 2011 Honda Odyssey provides a perfect example for the phrase “the best just got better.”

With the Odyssey’s enhanced style, fuel efficiency and added features, competing minivans will have a difficult time unseating it from the No. 1 spot.

In the next month the Honda Odyssey is expected to roll onto the floors of dealerships across the country delivering what most expect of the minivan: the family-friendliness, the utility, and the spaciousness.  But, the Odyssey adds good looks, bold aesthetic flourishes, and advanced technology features, giving minivan drivers more than they would have thought possible.

Lower and wider than last year’s model, the new Odyssey offers comfortable seating for eight, with more shoulder room and several configurations for fitting additional passengers, car seats or cargo. The exterior of the Odyssey will turn heads with its “lightning bolt” beltline, a distinctive look that sets it apart from the other minivans on the road.

The Odyssey features a 3.5-liter i-VTEC V6 that, while powerful, is expected to achieve 19 miles per gallon (mpg) in the city and a remarkable 28 mpg on the highway.

Pulling technology into the mix, the Odyssey features a 12-speaker AM/FM/XM/CD Premium Audio System and voice-activated Honda Satellite-Linked Navigation.  For entertainment for passengers, the Odyssey has an Ultra-Wide Rear Entertainment System with split-screen capability.

New to the 2011 model are 18-inch alloy wheels, larger ventilated front disc brakes, reworked side mirrors, available HID headlamps, and a power tailgate.

With production started, it’s only a matter of time before Colorado Honda customers get behind the wheel of the all-new 2011 Honda Odyssey.
