TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2016 Ford Expedition proves there's a place in the world for old-school SUVs, especially those with turbo power, adaptive suspensions, and luxury-truck trim.

The 2016 GMC Yukon has the power and capability to haul up to nine passengers, their stuff, and the family boat.

TCC Likes

Stronger, higher-mpg engine
Should ride smoother and quieter than ever
Good third-row space in EL model

Revamped powertrains
Fold-flat seats
Denali's Magnetic Ride Control

TCC Dislikes

It's still an 8-year-old design
Not easy to park, even with rearview camera
Gas mileage has made gains, but not big ones

New look is hardcore straight-edge
Hybrid edition is gone
Can get very pricey at the upper end of the range
