The Chevrolet Suburban offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Ford Expedition Max, making it a little more comfortable for the driver and front passenger.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Chevrolet Suburban is somewhat more expensive than the Ford Expedition Max.

Dimensions
The Chevrolet Suburban is a little wider than the Ford Expedition Max, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Chevrolet Suburban, which is slightly longer than the Ford Expedition Max.

Performance
