2012 Chevy Suburban 1/2-Ton vs. 2012 Ford Expedition EL

It's obvious that the 2012 Suburban and the 2012 Expedition are large and mean business on the road. Let's compare these two big machines and see what SUV earns the crown.

Big vehicles for big people. Tall people are going to love the 2012 Chevy Suburban 1/2-Ton due to it's greater front head- and legroom than the 2012 Expedition. Got a lot of people? That's not an issue either due to the seating capacity of the Suburban. When compared to the 2012 Expedition, the 2012 Suburban can actually fit an entire extra person plus more cargo. Now that's big.

Now some people are going to be nervous when it comes to parking the 2012 Suburban or Expedition. You can be at ease if you chose the 2012 Chevy Suburban. It has a smaller turning radius than the 2012 Expedition meaning you will be able to maneuver in and out of tight parking spots more easily with the Suburban.

Let me guess, you're thinking, "These huge SUV's are just a couple of gas guzzling machines that are going to have me spending a ridiculous amount on gas every couple weeks". Well know this. The 2012 Suburban offers an EPA estimated 15 MPG in the city and 21 MPG on the highway, both of which are higher than the Expedition. This of course means that the cruising range is going to be better with the Suburban, and it is. The 2012 Suburban is going to give you close to 50 more miles on it's cruising range than the 2012 Expedition on the highway, at 651 and 603, respectively.

One last bit of information for you, while both vehicles offer the standard 3 year/ 36,000 mile bumper-to-bumper limited warranty, the 2012 Suburban also offers a 100,000 mile Powertrain/Drivetrain limited warranty whereas the 2012 Expedition is only going to give you 60,000 miles with that warranty.
