  • 2020 GMC Acadia Denali or 2020 Ford Explorer ST? Which of these two is the best 3 row SUV to buy in 2020? #fordexplorerst #gmcacadiadenali
    In this video I compared the latest 3 Row SUV from GMC and Ford to see how they stack up against each other. Initially I had decided to compare the Ford Explorer ST to the Acadia AT4 but then looking at them side by side I figured price wise they don't compete. These two trims seem to be more closer in terms of price.

      I prefer fords design, but will never buy any Ford product.
      The other one looks more adequate for a loving granny.

      Austin Miller eh. I mean it’s just a preference. Personally although it is fun to drive, ive had way too many bad experiences with BRAND NEW fords including this car. One time my fam was stranded on the roads for hours and had to get another rental car. It was like they didn’t learn shit about reliability since the last time I owned a ford. Idk if that was a dud or somebody fucked up the car already, but that was the last straw for me.

    The GMC has a max towing of 4000lbs not 6000lbs, compared to this years Explorer of 5900lbs, that really makes a big Difference if your looking for a everyday Vehicle plus a Trailer puller. I've had a few Fords and really thinking of getting the Explorer
    Thanks for the review !

    To be totally transparent, when getting into the third row seats, the "passenger side" second row seat of the GMC Acadia slides forward more than the driver's side second row ...

    2020 GMC Acadia vs 2020 Ford Explorer

  • @mybro727
    @mybro727 Před 4 lety +9

    2020 GMC Acadia is equipped with a 9-speed automatic transmission, not a 7-speed. The GMC tows up to 4,000 lbs which _is_ pretty competitive for a N/A 3.6L V6 and FWD chassis. The Ford Explorer has nearly double the torque but not exactly double the towing capacity. It’s also on a RWD platform which allows for better traction while towing, better fuel economy while towing, and is less sensitive to weight distribution.
    Ford went to a RWD platform which means these two vehicles are no longer direct competitors. They’re competing in separate markets now.
    For towing I’d choose the Ford Explorer ST but I’m choosing the more premium and stylish GMC Acadia Denali for a comfortable, spacious, three row daily driver.

    I dont mind physical buttons, I prefer them actually, but the Acadia looks like a Nokia compared to a Samsung. Bulky looking. I think the wood trim would discourage younger buyers like me.
