JD and Matt -- I really enjoyed this video! It was almost like a podcast with all the give and take between the two of you. Cutting up and laughing at yourselves and each other -- Love it! Regarding the Brinkley, it is obviously a top-of-the-line unit, and the manufacturer's team put a lot of thought into this design. Of course, it's not perfect (if there is such a thing). Had my local RV dealer carried Brinkleys, I would have had a hard time choosing between a Brinkley and an Alliance. Thanks for the video. Lou from Georgia. When you add Josh to the line-up, the videos will be absolutely crazy! 🙂
I just bought the Keystone Alpine 43ft it has two full bedrooms, queen and king, and two baths. I really like having two bedrooms and two full bathrooms with showers and no loft, giving you that extra height it feels bigger. 😮 😅The loft is wasted space unless you like to belly crawl. I just couldn't have chosen better. The Brinkley's nice, my friends are looking at it. I just feel like it's more like a home having more bedrooms and bathrooms. I would lose my mind with only one bathroom all of the time. 😮
Hey, JD absolutely loved the collaboration with Matt great video. And I must say the Brinkley's are one of the nicer fifth wheels out there. Definitely worth the extra money.
I have always liked the look of Brinkley Rv’s. I like the mustard colored theater seats and dinette chairs. And I’d have to say that the bunk house is probably my favorite area of the rv. Very nice fifth-wheel! Great video, thanks for sharing it with all of us!😊
I hope I’m not the only one that sees the competition between these guys. It’s Loy key kinda funny and would love to see more collaborations. (For entertainment purposes only)
The Brinkley design and finish are exceptional. I like the wiring harness too. Not so keen on my bed being in a slide out. To me it feels claustrophobic, never mind that it looks weird and they never seem to get the nightstand/coffee cup holder/CPAP shelf just right. I would suggest that with an east-west bedroom that the dresser/TV be on a slide out instead.
We have a Cougar 368mbi with the mid bunk. JD is 100% correct as our son sleeps in the loft every night with the mid-bunk being used as video game central on rainy days. Matt is 100% correct in that the AC in our mid bunk is horrendous with little to no airflow.
Love every Brinkley and all that they are doing. Motivating other manufacturers to modernize RVs and putting out better products for the money they charge. Thanks!
This is the unit we're currently getting prices on. From what I've read the windows in bedroom slide are now an option to have them open or not, the gen x is also now an option on all the model Z units, and now all hydraulic jacks, not electric. We really want the new 3950 toy hauler but that's a few months out from production and we don't feel like waiting. This 3610 will fit our needs just fine and definitely cheaper then the toy hauler model's so I'm fine with that as well. Brinkley is a great company nothing but positive feedback from owners on customer service and quality.
Only thing I'd change is the trash can pull out drawer, and make it a pull out rack to store pots, pans, and lids for full time living! It's more attractive for us cooks to have to have more room!
I love the outside kitchen !! I would put my drink blender, air fryer, outside coffee pot, or waffle maker, or even store my electric grill in there that I would actually use further away from the rv. I don't like the idea of grilling up close to the RV and getting air grease on the side or canopy.
for those who have been watching these new 24 5th wheels Brinkly really shook up the market have you noticed how a lot of them have gone with the black and white motif with simple graphics
Really nice. My grandkids begged us to get the RV with a loft. We did. They never would sleep in it. I think they just feel way too claustrophobic. I'd rather have that ceiling height. My next unit will have an adjustable bed. A split queen would be the best. An RV of that caliber should have that.
Really wish these mid bunks would get away from the dresser systems and focus on desk space! It's super easy to throw a couple nice looking drawer units "under" the desk if that's the need. But these huge mid bunk rooms are losing a lot of value by not supplying a nice wide desk. (There are a few super narrow desks out there and just a couple really great desks, mostly in high profile fivers). I LOVE this unit from Brinkly. But I need a mobile office! I'm sure I can make this work. But man, how about an "option" for a desk instead of the dresser! Should be super-easy to do! Almost as easy as the dinette options!
I believe that the mid-bunk dresser has a slide out on the top piece of that dresser that allows you to use it as a desk space. Check out this video that shows that feature. ua-cam.com/video/2ir10ZnGH40/v-deo.htmlsi=LZTywlPj6sIUyGI0
JD loved the video I love the way the Brinkleys look I am just wondering how the windows are going to hold up. one of the reasons they use rounded windows in air planes is because stress cracks start in the corner.
Now that outside kitchen is perfect. It gives you the fridge with space to adapt how you personally like an outside kitchen. I don't like a fixed sink. we love the Brinkley except for where they put the autolevel - definitely not a good place.
Looks like the same AC in the mid room is the one in the z3100 rear, with that vent open it is pretty loud. being that high can you close the vent? Did notice in hot weather the AC can trip a breaker if the vent is closed and running hard.
I noticed on a couple of their other trailers they were incorrectly using flex hose with a pinch attachment on some of the plumbing. Have they changed this?
Everyone’s has their likes… My Wife & I really like gold hardware, it’s one perk for the Brinkley… the drop down silverware & knifes is another unique like of Brinkley. That said, a color option for hardware would be nice too.
Any time the two of you do a video together it gives us a much better look into the RV you are walking through. Very informative and I know everyone who watches takes both of your opinions ove4 most others. Thank you both for collaborating during the Hershey show.
I am a Brinkley fan! I will pay the extra money for the quality and stellar customer service. I plan on purchasing within a year.

Love the side by side fridge. So nice to see one without the dutch door/bottom freezer. I'm 6' 3" and hate having to bend over to access the freezer.
Thanks so much JD! You are amazing!
Two of my favorite RV review guys!!
Nice tag team review! ❤
Hey, JD absolutely loved the collaboration with Matt great video. And I must say the Brinkley's are one of the nicer fifth wheels out there. Definitely worth the extra money.

Very nice fifth wheel. Doing the collaboration with Matt is great. I have to agree with you about the coffee, Dunkin or Krispy Kreme.
Love the collaboration, guys! And I do watch Josh's videos too.
Love the colors and as a soon to retire couple who do not need a loft, it’s perfect!
I hope I’m not the only one that sees the competition between these guys. It’s Loy key kinda funny and would love to see more collaborations. (For entertainment purposes only)
I love this Rv …. This is beautiful and I’m definitely going to spend the money on this unit …
Gorgeous unit, love the mid bunkroom. Very versatile & beautiful.
Matt's positive energy level is contagious.
I like the couch the color! I myself don't care for the tan chair's,but it's nice thank you for sharing this 🥰🌹
I like the slide on the dresser since you don't have to remove item to get to the stored items under.
The Brinkley design and finish are exceptional. I like the wiring harness too. Not so keen on my bed being in a slide out. To me it feels claustrophobic, never mind that it looks weird and they never seem to get the nightstand/coffee cup holder/CPAP shelf just right. I would suggest that with an east-west bedroom that the dresser/TV be on a slide out instead.
I love that Brinkley has taken away the upgrades and made them standard. That’s my favorite thing about Brinkley.
Great video. You get a like from me for the cheap coffee statement. I’m love my Folgers.
That hose reel is pretty cool just don't forget to winterize it lol. Very nice looking rig!
I love the Brinkley RV's
JD, you need to get a sponsorship from Black Rifle Coffee Company. Veteran owned and operated.
Matt on this channel 😂
Also matt is the best

If you ever make to Canada try Tim Hortons! ( I believe there is some Tim’s in some states now in the north)
He’s funny. I can picture you, him and Josh the RV Nerd out having pizza and Coors Lights 😂
Love every Brinkley and all that they are doing. Motivating other manufacturers to modernize RVs and putting out better products for the money they charge. Thanks!
You can try if you want to do one video a year with Matt and Josh. That will be the most detailed RV review of anyone.

I love this unit! I love the interior! I love the no loft mid bunk. There could be better storage in the main bedroom though!
Probably around $125,000.
Only thing I'd change is the trash can pull out drawer, and make it a pull out rack to store pots, pans, and lids for full time living! It's more attractive for us cooks to have to have more room!

Having a loft bunk on the outside of the mid bunk,jd please do a walk through on your own
My dream retirement home❤️
Really nice. My grandkids begged us to get the RV with a loft. We did. They never would sleep in it. I think they just feel way too claustrophobic. I'd rather have that ceiling height. My next unit will have an adjustable bed. A split queen would be the best. An RV of that caliber should have that.

Brinkley is my favorite. I wouldn't have the recliners and dining chairs a different color than the sofa. White looks nicer.
Watching Matt's Euro trip the Euro RVs are much nicer inside IMO....
Don't believe Matt! He tells us all the time to tow things behind our 5th wheels 🤣
JD loved the video I love the way the Brinkleys look I am just wondering how the windows are going to hold up. one of the reasons they use rounded windows in air planes is because stress cracks start in the corner.
I agree with kids it's a no go without the loft
Hey Matt! Ha!
lmao make that shirt! At least a toolbox sticker lol
Now that outside kitchen is perfect. It gives you the fridge with space to adapt how you personally like an outside kitchen. I don't like a fixed sink.
we love the Brinkley except for where they put the autolevel - definitely not a good place.
I love it
Reminds me of a grand design 31MB a bit
With 2 sons and 1 girl, I like mid bunks, but I would want the loft above it
Looks like the same AC in the mid room is the one in the z3100 rear, with that vent open it is pretty loud. being that high can you close the vent? Did notice in hot weather the AC can trip a breaker if the vent is closed and running hard.
I noticed on a couple of their other trailers they were incorrectly using flex hose with a pinch attachment on some of the plumbing. Have they changed this?
Please both of you tell Brinkley to give an option for black kitchen hardware, the gold is gaudy and polarizing. My wife absolutely hates it.
Everyone’s has their likes… My Wife & I really like gold hardware, it’s one perk for the Brinkley… the drop down silverware & knifes is another unique like of Brinkley. That said, a color option for hardware would be nice too.
Any time the two of you do a video together it gives us a much better look into the RV you are walking through. Very informative and I know everyone who watches takes both of your opinions ove4 most others. Thank you both for collaborating during the Hershey show.
I dont like the lofts either. I like that brinkly has not put a top on the box.
Did they mention price for this model?
bunk houses should at least come with 3 bunks ,mandatory. lol not just two, most families have at least 3 kids
While it looks well made, the mid profile design makes the Brinkley look like a 10 year old Cougar. I’ll wait for the full profile version.
...so, if we run each video through the right software, will we get the whole show in 3D..(?)
Matt needs to lay off the tacos and remember to take his meds every morning. ;-)
Doesn’t seem like they feature these out nearly as nice as the G toy haulers
#teamcoachman
Take it this is a 2023 model
2024
Gold ? Yack
JD, there's a reason I watch your videos and not Matt's. Just sayin'.
Almost … not a fan of the tan couches and chairs. Should have stayed with the putty color scheme and I’m a north south bed person
Not worth $ 160,000
Cannot stand watching Matt and his reviews. Ugh....
