I just commented on another video that I just saw y'all on Westbound I-20 in Lindale. Are y'all stopping at SFOT? That's my home park. Most of my videos on my own channel are of that park. You can even see it in my avatar pic here lol. Anyway, whether you're stopping at SFOT or not, be careful and keep hydrated. This Texas heat is no joke.
Awesome! Just subscribed and can’t wait to watch your videos. We were planning on going but this heat might keep us away! We have been before. Love New Texas Giant!

Love your videos, we want a 5th wheel and love the Brinkley. Your videos are so informative that my husband and I have learnt so much. We were wondering if you drive a 2500 or 3500 truck? We did the math and the 2500 is sufficient but the 3500 is better.
Glad you are enjoying the videos and thanks for watching! We have 3500 truck. While a 2500 could theoretically tow a Brinkley, the issue you may run into is with payload. Keep in mind that the Brinkley hitch weight is 2142 and this number could be higher depending on how much cargo your have above the hitch (like a washer/dryer). Our last tow vehicle was not suitable for towing our last trailer and it led to some dangerous driving conditions and several close calls. Lesson learned, we'd rather have too much truck than too little. I'd play it safe and go with the 3500.
There were some brake wiring issues on the Lippert axles used on the earlier Model Z vin numbers. This caused the brakes to diminish in performance or not even work at all. Brinkley has issued a recall and has done a great job working with Lippert and the customers to get the brakes replaced. We had ours replaced by a mobile tech and only experienced slight diminished brake performance.
We're considering the unit you have, was wondering how stable the unit is with only 4 points of contact with the auto leveling? Camper shake or move around? Thanks.
It's fairly stable when we're inside. Sometimes we'll feel the other person walking around and when the washing machine is spinning we definitely feel it. It's certainly much more stable than our old travel trailer.

Awesome, look like you guys are enjoying yourself happy camping.
Thank you! It's been great so far!
Just saw you both passing through Shreveport, Louisiana.
Thanks for the shout out, drive safe!
Ballpark! Field of dreams when you go westbound!
That is a great idea! That would be great to visit!
Very good!
Thanks!
Love the rv. Would like to get one but maybe out of our price range. Probably going with the Avenue.
Alliance is a good brand as well!
Crisp Audio. What are you using?

We got Brinkley Z3100 3 weeks ago. We’ve found out that our oven is not working right. Have you tried yours?
We actually have not used the oven yet. Now we need to!
What is your trailer brake issue? With truck or RV?
