New 2011 Honda Odyssey is everything a minivan should be By James R. Healey, USA TODAY PHOTOS: More views of the Honda Odyssey QUESTIONS? Ask them now for Healey's chat, 2 p.m. ET Today's question: Q:I am trying to decide between a new Honda Pilot and new Mazda CX-9. I am a previous model Pilot owner so I lean that way. I like the Mazda handling and acceleration but it rides too abruptly. A: I've been disappointed by what appears to be a cheap interior treatment in Pilots. At first, it seemed OK; competitive. But stacked up against the latest rivals the Pilot has down-scale look and feel inside. The CX-9 is a Mercedes/Lexus/BMW/pick-your-comparison by contrast. Sweet interior. I very much like how it looks, drives, feels, etc. Not as handy or roomy inside as Pilot, but much more satisfying in other ways. Read the latest Test Drive chat
