RDX vs Pilot

Hi guys...
I own a 2005 MDX and just bought a 2011 pilot.
Before I test drove the pilot I drove a 2010 RDX and then decided to go with pilot for more room.
I actually like the new RDX and they seem bigger. How is the ride, is it comfy , bumpy, stiff ?
I might trade in my pilot for a new RDX. How is the reliability ?

Thank you...

The vehicle is too new to know for certain on reliability, but so far nobody seems to be reporting big issues...a few people with squeaky brakes.

My family...everybody is above 36 years old...all think it rides smooth and they fight over who gets to ride in back...the back seat is more comfortable than the front passenger seat, which is comfy but low.

Not sure if it's bigger than the Pilot...I doubt it.

Thanks...

The pilot is very roomy . I dont like the seats and the ride.
I like our MDX and I should have stayed with Acura.

Totally different cars. Pilot is big, so if you need the space, keep it. Otherwise the rdx is better in all other dimensions. Just look and feel the plastics in the cars.

Just test drove a 2013 RDX at lunch.
Like the drive.
The seats are low compared to the pilot
and less room..


I think I might stick with my pilot..

Thank you guys...

The Pilot is over 7" longer than the RDX. The Pilot has 47.7 cu. ft. of cargo capacity behind the second row vs. 26.1 in the RDX. So it's not even close as to which one is bigger.
