Why the Ford Expedition is Better Than Competitors
The Ford Expedition is a massive SUV, one of the largest in the Ford lineup, but how does it compare to the competition? At Courtesy Ford of Rome, our team does a deep dive to discover how Expedition ranks among popular large SUVs like the Chevy Tahoe, Nissan Armada, and more. Find out why the Ford Expedition is better than the competition by scheduling a test drive and seeing the difference in person.
Style & Layout


While the Ford Expedition may not be the largest SUV on the market, it boasts an impressive 121.4 cubic feet of total cargo space with an additional 17 cubic feet in the extended version: Expedition Max. The Nissan Armada is smaller, and the Chevy Tahoe is similarly sized. Like rivals, the Expedition offers three rows of seating suitable for adults to sit anywhere. However, both rear rows can also fold flat into the floor to create a large cargo bay when the Expedition doubles as a work vehicle or when hauling larger items.

The Expedition comes in a wide range of trim levels, starting with a work-friendly XL trim and moving up to the luxurious Platinum trim. The range of options ensures that all types of drivers can find an Expedition suitable for their needs. Unlike rivals like the Armada or Wagoneer that cater solely to comfortable rides and family activities, the Expedition also makes a great commercial vehicle. The Expedition offers more value and choice thanks to the rugged design and durability of the work-oriented models and available upscale trims for modern families.

Power & Capability
Every Ford Expedition gets power from a twin-turbocharged 3.5-liter V6 engine with a ten-speed automatic transmission. It comes in two available outputs: 380 horsepower/470 pound-feet of torque or 400 horsepower/480 pound-feet of torque. Despite rivals like the Chevy Tahoe, Suburban, or Nissan Armada, which have multiple engine options, including V8s, the Expedition beats the competition with a max towing capacity of 9,000 pounds. The Ford Expedition is available with rear- or all-wheel drive for more robust off-roading capabilities.
