The 2018 Ford Expedition gets a thorough update this year and apart from the feature update gets performance upgrades as well. The Ford Expedition towing capacity is rated for just 6,000 lbs as standard which is far less than its competitors but has a decent payload capacity of 1,758 lbs. But opt for the Heavy-Duty Trailer tow package and the maximum towing capacity extends to 9,300 lbs.
The 2018 Expedition towing capacity is the best amongst the lot with the optional package. The Chevrolet Tahoe offers decent towing capacity at 8,200 lbs while the Nissan Armada does marginally better at 8,400 lbs. The Toyota Sequoia is the least impressive of the lot here in spite of offering plenty of grunt under the hood.
