My Take: Edmund’s TMV suggests the Pilot can be had for around $776 under invoice price (on the EX AWD model), I am willing to bet that that number also applies to the other trims as well (there is around $1500 dealer cash available). This is probably the one and only reason why I didn’t put this SUV into the DO NOT LEASE list. The residual value is quite terrible, but the MF is decent, allowing this SUV to make the cut. Keep in mind I didn’t factor in the dealer cash on my calculations, which means you can probably go lower than my lower calculated price. If you don’t need 15k miles per year (I normally don’t), you can get a 2% residual increase, shaving off another $15-$20 off your monthly payment on your 36-month lease. Good stuff huh?
