A comparable vehicle would be the Chevy Suburban. However, when I price an equivalent one out and get to a similar MSRP, the lease is way worse then this one because the APR is much higher.
I dont need to tow anything but I do need lots of space for kids. The expedition has an independent suspension that makes the floor completely flat like a mini-van. The Suburban on the other hand has a large hump between the 2nd/3rd rows.
Also, the expedition allows you to tilt & roll the 2nd row seats with a car seat in it which is a huge selling point.
The two features above make the expedition much larger and functional.
With that said, the suburban seems like a much more quality vehicle, BUT, im just using the car for a few years so im more concerned about the functionality of it.
