In the short month I’ve had mine, with the 4wd, I’ve had it in 4A most of the time because it’s rained a LOT. Keep in mind I live in Dallas so it’s not like I live down a dirt road. These ecoboosts are so torquey that the back end has broken loose several times on slippery roads. I have been really pleased/impressed how quickly and seamlessly the 4A recognized what was happening and kicked the front wheels in. There’s also a little display in the dash which will show power distribution in real time and it’s pretty cool.It was something that we discussed (4x4), but in the end we decided we would never use it.

Links or it didn't happen!There is a video from FORD of all people pitting the new Expy against the suburban. The Expy is squatting like crazy with the trailer hooked up. This was one of a few reasons why i bought my tahoe instead of the new expy.
Suburban = 355hp 383tq
Expedition = 375hp 470tq
Yes I would say the Suburban overall is much less powered
Let me explain
Torque is a rotating force produced by an engine’s crankshaft. The more torque an engine produces, the greater its ability to perform work.
With almost 100 more ftlbs of torque and 4 more gears to chose from the Expedition should have towed better than the Suburban period.
And I don't care if you disagree or not. If you cant tell the Expedition is sagging a lot more then the Suburban you need to get your eyes checked or update the prescription on your glasses. The Suburban is damn near level the entire time and the Expy is clearly not.
You make it sound like every model prior to 18 is riding around on wagon wheels or something. Sacrifice the comfort of your family are you serious!!!!! Ive had no complaints from my family of 5 concerning the comfort of the ride when towing or not.
