Honda Pilot Attracts Geeks … Just Not the Kind that Get Rich and Marry Models

honda-nudie-balloonists.jpg

In specific, the Honda Pilot will steer you into the path of geriatric ballooning nudists, jetpack users and at least one guy trapped in a cement block. All will be male, and all will be slightly left of your comfort zone.

These unlikely Good Samaritan scenarios highlight the Pilot’s merits: rearview camera, navigation with voice recognition and “surprising” fuel efficiency. None of that is terribly unique, but all of it is now lodged in my brain, if only so I can turn the ads into slow-night bar fodder.

But wait! There’s print stuff too. See Youtility and Ride Ready, which are less creepy, but also less interesting. Agency: RPA.
