Anyone spent some time comparing the Ascent with the Honda Pilot?
Reviews are starting to come out (e.g., Alex on Autos), and Alex on Autos praised it above the Ascent for multiple factors.
Some questions I'm curious about (and I'm sure you have more questions):
In addition to all of this, how does Toyota Highlander compare against all of this (e.g., ACC, lane keep, and other safety features)?
I'm still looking forward to taking my Ascent as soon as it arrives, but it seems that the new Honda Pilot refresh is a lot more competitive and has the Ascent beat in several ways. (I simply still don't like the look of the Pilot, and personally feel it's a tad uglier than last year's model. Then again, I don't think the Subaru Ascent wins any awards on the "looks" category either.)

Some questions I'm curious about (and I'm sure you have more questions):
- How does Honda Sensing compare with the Subaru Eyesight?
- Which vehicle is superior in AWD (Alex on Autos mentioned Honda's better b/c it delivers more power to wheels with traction?)
- Which brand offers superior active cruise control and lane keep assist (Honda uses radar? Subaru has dual cameras?)?
