Starting with size, the Roadtrek Play measures 21.5 ft long and tips the scales at 6,800 lbs dry weight. The Thor Four Winds 28Z comes in at 32.5 ft with a dry weight of 10,200 lbs. That gives the Thor Four Winds 28Z roughly 11.0 extra feet of length.

Tank capacities are a key off-grid consideration. The Roadtrek Play carries 29 gal of fresh water, 27 gal gray, and 14 gal black. The Thor Four Winds 28Z offers 65 gal fresh, 37 gal gray, and 35 gal black. The Thor Four Winds 28Z has the edge for extended dry camping.

Budget-wise, the Roadtrek Play is listed at $237,000 compared to $244,000 for the Thor Four Winds 28Z.

For boondocking, the model with superior solar and battery setup will keep you comfortable off the grid longer. For occasional getaways, the more affordable and nimble option usually makes the most sense. If you're going full-time, the larger tanks and more robust build quality matter enormously.

Ultimately, both rigs have their merits — test drive each one and see which floor plan speaks to your lifestyle.
