Recently purchased a 2008 Honda Pilot and added the tow package. Our Ranger pulls beautifully behind the Pilot and the great news is that, with variable cylinder management, it will get 23+ MPG on the highway when not pulling. Looks like it will be a nice compromise between pulling and usefulness when not towing. Purchased the base model with tow package for $23,086 brand spanking new. So far, I'm very pleased with the Pilot.
 
What's the tow rating on the pilot with tow package and how much does a Ranger weigh on the trailer?
 
2750 lbs boat and 710 lbs trailer
Pilot tow rating is 3500 lbs
 
Oh, I was picturing the larger tug. Makes sense now.
 
WE have been towing a cd-22 the Duck for a few yrs with the Honda Pilot 4whl drive it has a 4500lb rating I get about 21-22 mpg highway 15-17 city Towing it gets 11-12 mpg Its been a great van . We towed the cape cruiser back from Melbourne a few weeks ago it towed very good This is all flat land towing no hills no snow and taking it easy 60 mph is fine . Im vey impressed with the honda so far .
