Honda Pilot used as a tow vehicle
Looking for a new tow SUV for a T@B trailer about 2000#. Is a 2017 Honda Pilot a good choice? Can anyone give me MPG when towing?

I'd be very skeptical about towing with a Pilot. Hondas have been known for very serious transmission problems with their 6 cylinder vehicles.
Forum member Last Train tows the same trailer I own, a Coachmen Freedom Express 192RBS but a newer model year, with his Honda Pilot. Mine typically averages ~ 4800 lbs loaded & ready to camp, I'd expect his to weigh around the same, and although I tow with a 1/2 ton Silverado he seems to be satisfied with how his Pilot handles his trailer. The OP might want to PM Last Train for more info.
