Toyota Sequoia vs. Ford Expedition EL Review

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs almost the same to get the Expedition EL to the dealership as the Toyota. Producing an exact fuel economy evaluation is so hard that some think not even the federal government can do it, but it looks as though the Toyota Sequoia is the winner with respect to fuel economy. The Ford Expedition EL won't tax your gasoline budget significantly more than the Toyota Sequoia will. When it comes to MSRP, the Toyota Sequoia costs roughly as much as the Ford Expedition EL (though the Ford Expedition EL is a little cheaper).

Utility
The Toyota Sequoia and the Ford Expedition EL can accommodate the same number of passengers. The Ford Expedition EL is a better choice than the Toyota Sequoia as far as hauling capacity, especially if you frequently need to carry a lot of luggage or sizeable dogs.

Convenience
The Toyota Sequoia's fuel tank will need to be replenished more often than the unit in the Ford Expedition EL.

Comfort
Taller drivers will substantially enjoy the extra head room in the Expedition EL's front cabin compared to the Sequoia. The ampler interior dimensions of the Ford make it significantly more spacious for your passengers than the Toyota.

Dimensions
Your wallet will hurt more every time you fill up the Ford Expedition EL than the Toyota Sequoia because of its larger tank. The Toyota Sequoia and the Ford Expedition EL compete for the same parking spaces. The Ford's longer wheelbase will result in a smoother, more stable ride; on the other hand, the Sequoia may give a sprier feel in daily traffic.

Handling
With its tighter turning radius, the Toyota Sequoia is definitely sprier than the Ford Expedition EL, something to consider if you do a lot of city driving; on the other hand, note that a vehicle with a tight turning circle may feel a bit twitchy on the highway.

Drivetrain
The Ford Expedition EL's engine is substantially larger than the Toyota Sequoia's. Note that more massive engines may use more gasoline than smaller ones.

Warranty
The Ford Expedition EL and the Sequoia have the same basic after-sale protection.
