Thor Delano 24FB vs Tiffin Wayfarer 25RW

Thor · Class C

The difference that matters

Identical in length at 25.7 ft and in GVWR at 12,125 lb, these Mercedes-based Class Cs each sleep four and carry 200 W of solar. The Wayfarer 25RW has a slide-out and rides on the dual-wheel Sprinter 4500 XD cutaway with a 208 hp diesel. Its 2,000 W Xantrex inverter is twice the Delano's 1,000 W, so more outlets and appliances run off batteries.

The Delano 24FB counters with a larger 4.0 kW propane generator against the Tiffin's 3.2 kW, automatic leveling jacks, heated power captain's chairs and Mercedes' safety package with active braking, lane keeping and distance cruise. It is rated to tow 5,000 lb.

Tanks favor the Delano on waste, 38 gal gray and 38 black against 34 and 24, while the Wayfarer has the slightly bigger fresh tank at 32 gal against 30. The Wayfarer offers a 205 Ah lithium upgrade over its standard lead-acid batteries.

Thor Delano 24FB: Long highway days, for couples who want driver assists, leveling jacks and big waste tanks.
Tiffin Wayfarer 25RW: Battery-powered appliance use through a bigger inverter, plus slide-out floor space, for couples.
