I picked up my first Suburban a little while ago. This 05 Burb Z71 4x4 is a tank. Perfect overland/road trip vehicle. Mine has almost 370k miles and still going strong.😊 I would love to add a 2500 4x4 version.

After checking out both brands back in 2004. I bought a brand new Expedition because the 2nd and 3rd row seats go down completely flat and the fit & finish looked higher quality. I still own it to this day. And them outside mirrors on the Expedition have power fold.

Drove suburbans for 10 years and bought a 2011 Ford Expedition EL Limited 6 years ago. Absolutely LOVE it. Great ride nice features and great looking. At 149,500 miles I have no intention of getting rid of anytime soon.

We bought a 1999 Suburban new. It still runs great. The leather seats are worn and some of the radio lights have stopped working. The paint has started to flake a bit. Other than that it is fine. It doesn’t use any oil. It rides a bit rough. It has taken a lot of people a lot of places. It is a 4x4, and it does great in sand and in snow and ice. It has been worth the money.

I bought the 2012 Lincoln Navigator "L", which is virtually identical to the Expedition in drive train and interior layout, but has a number of standard upgrades over the Expedition. Note that the power tailgate switch mounted on the door frame of the Suburban cannot be accessed from the inside when the door is closed. Ford/Lincoln chose to place the switch on the interior side panel so it can be easily accessed to open or close from the interior. Very handy when camping and sleeping in the vehicle and it cannot be activated by children when the vehicle is in motion. With a full 54 inch wide flat deck with seats folded, it fits a double size air mattress perfectly.

In 2017, I swapped by 2009 LT Suburban for a 2014 Expy EL Limited. My Expedition has 90K on it and I have no plans to replace it. If I had to replace it, it would be another Expy or perhaps a Toyota Sequoia. GM build quality has really slid in recent years.

Honestly, GM build quality has been trash since the 90s. Had a ‘91 S10 that was a maintenance queen. Radiator, heater core, several coils, drain plug in the rear diff rounded off inside itself (took a 1/2” drive head), a dozen or so fuel pump relays, 2 fuel pumps, alternator, thermostats, AC compressor, cracked dash, the silver paint had completely deteriorated and was rusting before the truck was even 10 years old (the black paint was okay), the leaf springs sagged, the cloth seats were ruined and tearing apart at the 8 year mark, manual window crank broke, interior door handle return springs broke often, outer passenger door handle snapped in half, a couple of oil pressure sensors, a locked up rear brake drum, and I’m sure I’m missing something else. Fast forward a few years and my wife wants an HHR so I buy her one. In two years the drivers interior door handle snapped off (was chrome painted plastic garbage), gutless little engine couldn’t even maintain speed climbing hills with 4 adults in it, interior was LOUD on interstates, gear position sensor went out, rear wheel bearings went out, hard plastics everywhere, and it rode like a log truck. In laws have owned several trailblazers, equinoxes, and Acadias. All of those have had rampant transmission issues. Surging, mis-shifting, TCM error codes…all before 75k miles. Every Dodge (Ram 1500) Ford (Taurus and Navigator) and Honda (Civic, Insight, Odyssey, Goldwing, Rebel 1100 DCT) product I’ve owned since those GM junkers have all been fantastic vehicles with minimal upkeep aside from fluids, plugs, brakes.

Not seeing the same amount come up for the 5.3L Chevy engine. One thing I think you should to point out for viewers is the amount of latches for child seats. We almost bought a 2010 Suburban yesterday (wanting to upgrade from our minivan, but discovered the 3rd Row only has 1 tether and no anchors... The 2nd row (bench seat in the model we looked at) has 3 tethers, but only 2 anchor systems, 1 on the passenger side and 1 in the middle seat. For older kids this wont be an issue.

Well, two years ago, I got one one lincoln navigator 2009 limited edition from one private seller. Very similar to your ford expedition but shorter storage. Very nice car. I got when it's only less than 50k miles, I got it for only $15.7k. I am in fact like chevy more, but the 3rd row seat is the deal breaker. The ford design absolutely better on 3rd row, leg room higher than chevy. Which makes passenager on 3rd row more comfortable in hours long trip. Anyway, 2021 model new chevy design changed it. If I consider new Tahoe or expedition, I may lead on Tahoe more.

From what I’ve seen, the Expeditions actually tow better. They have a more secure feel when towing heavy trailers at higher speeds. This particular generation has the independent rear suspension which allows for more flexibility, rear seat legroom and fold flat seats.

I had an 08 Escalade (that generation) up until this week when a truck ran me off the road. Looks like it's totalled. Here are my thoughts on GM: Like he says, the dash was cracked in mine also. The button decals wear off. Carpets wear poorly. The transmission was beginning to have issues. The previous owner had to replace the engine. The rear lift gate would not go up/down automatically anymore (grinding noise). Camshaft position sensor was broken (unhooking it worked - behind accessory pulley. Lost some efficiency). Power running boards were broken (relay taken out to keep them up). Just telling you, from my experience the quality on GM products is sub par. I'm shopping for a Ford Expedition EL as we speak. I hated it all falling apart around me. This guy is right - Ford is better. My 2001 expedition fit/finish interior quality was better than the 2008 Escalade. I'd still have it if it weren't for those damn spark plugs blowing out. Every car has it's issues though.

I own a 2011 Ford Expedition XLT premium 4x4 with 230,546 miles. Vehicle is a tank. As long as you take car of them they'll last a long time. I only use synthetic oil every 5-7k miles. So far everything mechanical is original. My main gripe is the aluminum hood and tailgate are known for corrosion and mine is no exception. Paid $1400 to get it repaired. So far 4 years later it's good. Great room and still has the same power and smoothness as the day it was new. Hate the hard plastics and cost cutting head scratches like only 1 auto up down window, rear windows don't go all the way down, only tilt wheel not telescoping as well, these vehicles where almost $50k new in 2011!! Thats unacceptable for a vehicle at that price when the Japanese makers usually had those items standard.

Theres a reason the president's motorcade is filled with Suburbans and Tahoes for as long as i can remember.

Expedition has less cargo volume. 130 ft vs 137 in the Suburban. The Expedition seats fold into the floor which is nice. I've owned an Expedition and the flat floor is super helpful. The engine of the Expedition is not great. They use the extra long spark plugs that break off in the engine. My rear hubs wore out and I had lots of gasket and vacuum issues. The BIGGEST knock on the Expedition is the panel contamination. Body panels from 2002 - 2018 were contaminated during manufacture and will oxidize from the inside out, your paint falls off. There is no fix for this and Ford has issued a number of Technical Service Bulletins on this issue. Common spots are the front fenders and rear hatch.

It does have a dip stick located under a cap on the left side of the trans - right next to the super hot cat! Who checks that. Low fluid causes shift studder. Just do a fluid/filter change every 50k miles and it would be fine. Fluid seeps out over 14 years believe it or not, dumbness not to use a dipstick people can check.

Expeditions are nicer and have engines that are more reliable and that's coming from a Chevy guy. Flex fuel is all fun and games until half your engine doesn't want to start back up. That 5.4 Triton V8 is detune and will last for at least 300,000 MI

Two things. up in the front you can turn off the power liftgate which is probably what happened in your Suburban in the video. The driver of the Suburban was probably a woman which is why the paint was all chipped off of the buttons. I drive a Suburban pretty much the same one you showed in the video. But when it comes down to it I would like a Ford. Not having anything against my suburban.

Expedition seats 8, not 7

By '09 the 5.4 hopefully had some better spark plugs after the disaster of the earlier models with the Tritons. I'm wondering if the Sub had the cylinder deactivation that Chevy put in their v8's.....def not a fan of those as their components wear out way faster than the pre '07 ones. Ford's interior is better in my opinion, they've had power 3rd row long before any other brand. Both have a massive amt of space, I've got an '03 Expi, would love an EL but both are very solid vehicles. Edge to the expi just cuz I have one currently ;)

Lost me at 5.4 triton is a good motor....

My 2015 Expedition is a POS. Regular maintenance done. Left me stranded on the interstate 4 times. First time at 45k miles. 3 more times and only have just over 100k miles on it. Thankfully bought the extended warranty. Once it hits 125k miles, it's gone and never buying a Ford again.

I cringed when he did that lol

The best years for the Suburban are the 2011 to 2013. All the factory service bulletin faulty parts were updated by March 2011 build dates. Removing the third row seats adds 120 lbs to your payload. Suburban’s look better in my opinion, plus those Ford 5.4 blow out spark plugs.

I have 1999 f150 with 5.4 had 2004 navigator 5.4 and know 2008 limited el and never had problems with spark plugs issues love my 5.4 engines strong and reliable

I believe the power tailgate button is on the side due to how soccer moms may not be able to reach up to the top to push the button. You get used to it.

Like the Ford better of the two.

Ford expeditions have a better setup, and quality, chevy tahoes/suburban are ok...i guess their engines were the highlight, the rest was cheap plastic.

Chevy looks inside like old Impala

The expedition is much better than the Chevy. For that year, Lincoln and ford only had the seat that folded in the floor because of the independent rear suspension. Make for a better ride to. I have a 2012 navigator l with 184000 miles. I’ll drive it till the wheels fall off.

The ford can carry 8 people not 7

Good to know Marcus. If theres a bench seat in the 2nd row thats the extra person to make it 8.

Right, the 3rd row is for 3 people.

I will say the ford was tempting BUT FOUND ON ROAD DEAD is all I'm gonna say. I had a suburban and let me tell you that suburban NEVER failed me! But U had to tow my friend with the Ford twice
