Honda Pilot Rebelle Rally
Honda R&D Americas (HRA) associates Ariel Jen and Melanie Morimoto recently completed the Rebelle Rally in this lightly modified 2019 Honda Pilot SUV. The all-women navigation rally runs 1,700 miles and 8-days across the deserts of California and Nevada, with driver and navigator only allowed a compass and a map as their guide. The 2019 Honda Pilot featured a stock drivetrain, using the factory engine, transmission, and i-VTM4™ all-wheel drive system for the duration of the journey. The only modifications made were for additional durability and safety performance, including custom skid plates, extra ground clearance, off-road tires, and an interior modified for additional storage of spare tires and other equipment.

I am adding OEM hitch/harness/trans cooler. Looking at camper just over 3000lbs dry weight. Probably 4500lbs loaded. Wonder how Passport will handle. Anyone towing something similar ?
Due to Covid, our passport is setting..... Has anyone used a cover? I have a cover on another car, but Im thinking about one for the passport. Any opinions or suggestions on this?
Hey all 👋
Admittedly, I’m not active on forums, but I wanted to share this with you all.
Honestly, I under estimated how difficult this trail would be. I was really surprised that the Passport made it up without much fuss.
My passport is 2 inch lifted with 2.5 inch taller tires. Nolo skid...
It seems like 90% of the threads on this site are complaints. If so why hasn’t everyone traded their PP in? I’m fairly new, but the the petty complaints on here seem to take away from legit issues.
