I’ve lived in Canada and driven both, but for my big family, I’d pick the Pilot. More room in back seat and bigger trunk, real handy for hockey gear. Had friends swear by the Odyssey though, says it’s super tidy for smaller fams. All good rides but Pilot suits my crew better!
I’ve got a wee one at home and drove a Odyssey for years in Ontario before hopping onto a Pilot last summer here in sunny Arizona. Both legit family champ but dude, Pilot’s got space like you wouldn’t believe. Odyssey’s got heart though, super reliable like no other, and the third row in both is clutch for extra kiddos or shopping sprees. For me, it’s all about the versatility, really rocks riding different terrains. Each’s got its own magic, I swear!
