With all of the hype about the Ecoboost, I was underwhelmed by it's performance. Specifically, getting on the expressway one time I put the gas peddle to the floor with the tach somewhere around 2500 RPMs. While the truck moved decent, it didn't down shift and actually felt sluggish. I don't know if it glitched, but with the 10 speed I expected it to downshift and take off.
1/4 mile drag Yukon Vs Expedition
I'm thinking either your butt dyno might need recalibration, or there was most definitely something wrong with your rental.
There isn't a situation that I'm aware of that the Suburban will out gun the Ecoboost in the Expedition. The video provided shows an Expy matched against a Yukon which is lighter than the Suburban, so it should be faster. Still can't even hang at the rear bumper of the Expedition.
With all that said, 0-60 and 1/4 mile times don't mean that much to me in a Tow vehicle.
