2012 EX-L Pilot vs 2004 XC70

[jkochis]

We just purchased a 2012 EX-L Pilot for my wife. We are happy with it for sure and did own an Acura before that we liked and was trouble free for us. We knew when we bought the Pilot unless we got the Touring even then some features we have now we wouldn't get. The ones we miss the most are:

Rain Sensing Wipers
Memory Seats/Mirrors

The Climate Control works better in the Volvo then the new Pilot for sure, my wife told me she was driving and it started blowing cold air, did it to us again over last weekend, Honda uses the sensor for the lights for climate control and sun was on it. So hence the cold air in the winter when we had it set at 70.

Well I am the new owner of our old XC70 w/ 90k on it.... hope to get another 90k on it or more..... and she will be jealous of my memory seats, climate control, and wipers... she even said lets trade, you can take the Pilot... no deal.

Memory seats yes, but rain sensors?
2004 rain sensors never worked properly.
2005 and newer do
