The difference that matters
Identical 28.92-foot lengths, both rear-kitchen couples plans with 400 W of solar. The Timber Ridge 24RKS is the heavier-built of the two: 6,775 lb dry against 6,510, but with a 9,995 lb GVWR that leaves 3,220 lb of cargo capacity against the Ember's 1,985. It rides on 5,200 lb axles with load-range E tires, has a fully enclosed, heated underbelly and a 35K BTU furnace, and carries 80 gallons each of fresh and gray water against 55 and 70. Hitch weights are nearly equal at 800 and 790 lb.
The Ember Touring Edition 2400RKL leans on interior design and power: a 2,000 W inverter with a Victron MPPT controller, theater seating and a convertible desk, a residential 60 by 80 walk-around queen in a private front bedroom with its own entrance, a composite floor and app control of the slide and awning.
Rough roads and long dry-camping stays favor the Timber Ridge. A couple who want a separate bedroom door and a ready inverter will lean Ember.
