Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Ford Expedition than in the Buick Encore GX, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Ford Expedition will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the Buick Encore GX.
