Thor Gemini AWD 24KB vs Tiffin Wayfarer 25RW

Thor · Class C

The difference that matters

At about 25.7 ft each, these compact Class Cs differ in drivetrain and layout. The Gemini AWD 24KB uses a Ford with a 310 hp 3.5 L EcoBoost and all-wheel drive, which helps on wet grass and gravel roads. It has twin beds that convert to a king, sleeps three and has a 5,000 lb tow rating. The Wayfarer 25RW uses a Mercedes-Benz 4500 XD dual-wheel cutaway with a 208 hp 2.0 L turbo diesel, a rear-bed plan with one slide, and sleeps four.

GVWR favors the Tiffin, 12,125 lb against 11,000. It also has 200 W of solar against 100 W, a 2,000 W Xantrex inverter and two 12 V house batteries with lithium optional. The Thor has a 4.0 kW dual gas and LP generator against the Tiffin's 3.2 kW, a 15,000 BTU ducted A/C and an automatic transfer switch.

Tanks are close: 31/27/20 gal on the Thor against 32/34/24.

Thor Gemini AWD 24KB: Two travelers who drive soft or slick roads and want AWD, twin beds and a bigger generator.
Tiffin Wayfarer 25RW: Diesel engine, a slide for floor space and more solar, for a couple.
