I live in Colorado, I went with the Ford Expedition as our family/camper towing rig just because of the high elevation. Where I live (around 6200 ft elevation) GMC 6.2 will loose about 20% of HP (336 HP) and even down to 30% (294HP) up in the mountains. The Ford with it's EcoBoost is not affected by elevation at all. I got my Expy Limited for $69k brand new last year out here so that's always a bonus compared to Canadian prices lol

The Ford Expedition got the plus 'cause it has got a forced induction device, i.e a turbocharger. It compresses incoming air and supplies it to the engine whereas the Denali (NA V8) solely relies on the atmospheric pressure...

It’s debatable. Ford doesn’t have a direct competitor to GMC, as GMC is more geared towards the higher-end buyer who isn’t ostentatious while Cadillac is more geared towards those ostentatious buyers. The high-end trims of the Expedition are meant to fill that role since Mercury is no longer a thing, so realistically the Escalade and the Navigator should be directly compared. That said, I’d like to see a Mercury version of the Expedition/Navigator, but of course that will never happen, unfortunately.

Although I'm partial more towards Ford, the Expedition has already become long in the tooth with its generic looking styling and design. I'm not a fan of the vertical screen, definitely prefer a horizontal one. The GMC looks far more modern and better looking inside. So maybe the Ford is quicker but I'll take the V8 over a twin 6 all day especially when they are unfortunately starting to near extinction. Hope they continue to offer what I think every suv should have, the liftgate window opening. A power down option like Toyota has in the 4runner would be a great addition to one of these larger vehicles. Another great review as always Truck King 👑 ✌🏽 🇺🇲 ❤️

We really liked the non ultimate Yukon Denali as well but we found the interior on the Ford to have a fresher design. Dont get me wrong I love the ls 6.2 but again it’s getting out dated the smoothness and power of the ford was light years ahead.

GM says its normal, and of course test drive any 6.2 and it does it. I own a 2005 6.0 Powerstroke well maintained 100k miles, a 2015 6.7 powerstroke Platinum, a 2021 Ford Ranger is what I traded in for the Denali, specifically Lariat Tremor, ended up eating coolant and having one of the first 2.3 ecoboost head gasket issues in the nation.

But, backing up is the one time that a person's inability to tow is on full display.. If they can't back a trailer, they probably can't think ahead to make wide turns, and other things u must do when trailering. And they basically just get lucky alot when driving forward.. So if u can't back up by hand, u should not be towing on public highways.

The GMC would look a lot better if all its chrome got the "vader" treatment, not just the grille. The mismatch doesn't make sense.

8000lbs of towing is a joke for cost of these things can’t even tow a medium sized travel trailer with that number

And that 10 spd granny box is trash. Shuddering, loss of power, pump failures and torque converter failures.

You're paying a lot more for the Denali for the outside appearance vs the Expedition. Ford beats the GMC hands down in towing capabilities

3 rows of seats with 8k of towing but only 1350lbs payload. That doesnt add up. You could be over that payload with 6 portly passengers. Then add a 7000lb trailer with 700lbs tongue weight.
@ALMX5DP7 ай бұрын
The towing figure doesn’t mean it is able do that while loaded full of other people/cargo. In many cases it’s an either/or scenario.
@wildbill23c7 ай бұрын
With most vehicles you'll max out your payload capacity long before you hit the trailer towing capacity because part of your payload capacity gets eaten up by trailer tongue weight. The 5k trailer would have around 500 pounds of tongue weight....1350 pounds of payload capacity is now 850 pounds....yep seems about right....also keep in mind these 2 bloated SUV's are also the luxury trim levels, which severely cuts your payload capacity right off the bat....if you wanna tow, buy a base model with the max tow package with any vehicle...with a truck you'd want the heavy payload package too, as well as a higher numerical ratio for your final drive, which gives you max tow capability, worse fuel economy, but if you wanna tow heavy you want to set the vehicle up properly.. Most of these fancy SUV's will never tow anything, they'll be found sitting at Walmart....so many people don't care what the towing capacity is LOL.

Get rid of that sunroof crap, and you'll gain a couple inches of headroom. Way too many vehicles with sunroofs as almost a standard now...get rid of it, one less place for leaks in the future too.

GMC is better looking inside and out but not a fair comparison since the Yukon is sort of a “tweener” between the Tahoe and Escalade. This Yukon would lose the same comparison to the Navigator. Don’t the Expedition’s middle row seats manually recline which can solve the head room issue?
