With a litany of car-based SUVs on the road today, it’s refreshing to see the 2017 Ford Expedition in person. With three rows of seating and plenty of room, the entire family can fit inside the Expedition with space to spare. We compared the 2017 Ford Expedition vs 2017 GMC Yukon to help you see which vehicle might better serve as your next SUV.

It gets to where it needs to with a turbocharged six-cylinder EcoBoost engine, that undoubtedly competes with every V8 on the road (evident by the comparison chart). With several trim levels and packages available, you can find the right group of features on the Expedition for you.

The powerful, comfortable 2017 Ford Expedition

Available in four trim levels: XLT, Limited, King Ranch and Platinum, the 2017 Expedition is regularly found at the top of critic and consumer lists when comparing large three-row SUVs. How does the Expedition compare to the GMC Yukon? The Ford Expedition boasts more room than almost every other SUV on the road, including the GMC Yukon. If you plan to use the third row of seating regularly, the Expedition is the clear choice.

If you’re concerned with the limits of a V6 engine, don’t be. The 3.5L V6 EcoBoost engine has been proven to last, and is able to outduel many of the V8 engines on the market. In terms of cabin space, there really isn’t another three-row crossover that can comfortably fit as many passengers or cargo as the Expedition.
