Ford Expedition vs GMC Yukon
Ford Expedition vs GMC Yukon
When it comes to extra-large SUVs, the Ford Expedition and GMC Yukon jump to the top of the list of mighty vehicles ready for a busy family or days hard at work. Large SUVs like the Expedition and Yukon are trusted for their impressive truck-like capabilities and uncompromising space for people AND cargo. If you are looking for the best SUV out there that can tackle your busy lifestyle or provide confident capabilities at any job site, then the Ford Expedition and GMC Yukon are great options. So, how do you decide which one you will ultimately drive home?
Our team at Butler Ford strongly recommends the Ford Expedition. Here's why:
Performance
The Ford Expedition is more powerful. The standard engine is a 400 horsepower 3.5-liter V6, and the upgrade is a higher output version that bumps it up to 440 horsepower. While the GMC Yukon has two V8s and an available diesel, none of them match the power output of the Ford Expedition's more efficient V6. The GMC Yukon has a max towing capacity of 8,400 pounds, and the Ford Expedition crushes with a max 9,600-pound towing capacity.
Technology
The GMC Yukon and Ford Expedition offer similar technology amenities with hands-free conveniences. The digital display layout, however, is vastly different. Would you prefer the large 16.8-inch tablet-like touchscreen in the Yukon or the 24-inch digital dashboard with a separate smaller touchscreen that both the driver and passenger can operate in the Expedition? Another perk of the Expedition is the ability to stream movies and surf the internet while parked.
Interior and Exterior
The Ford Expedition and GMC Yukon have similar dimensions and are available in a longer wheelbase for more third-row legroom and cargo space. Both SUVs have the option to swap the second-row bench for fancy captain's chairs and comforts like heated seats and power-folding second and third rows.
Options & Trim Levels
The Ford Expedition comes in four trim levels and two body styles ranging from just over $63k up to $85k or more. In contrast, the GMC Yukon has five trim levels and two body styles, with a higher price point starting at nearly $69k, and the top-tier Denali Ultimate can ring up over $103k.
