    So awesome to see a manufacturing facility that went through all the hard core development of their facility to make things run smooth, comfortable, and efficient FOR THE EMPLOYEES!!! HATS OFF TO BRINKLEY STAFF AND THIER EMPLOYEES! I TRULY LOVE THESE 2 MODELS AND HOPE MAYBE SOMEDAY I COULD BE THE PROUD OWNER OF ONE! DONT HAVE MUCH TIME LEFT, BETTER START SAVING MY DOLLARS. LOST IT ALL TO IAN.

    The guy in the brown sweater is SO excited about the product. He is so incredibly proud of the additional steps they take but he is so humble. It’s truly refreshing to see. He isn’t some suit just spewing talking points. He’s explaining his passion. I can’t wait to own a Brinkley.

    Every RV is built to satisfy a price point but outside of the materials where an RV Manufacturer can really make a difference is processes and manufacturing. It looks like Brinkley has definitely used there combined years of experience to do that.

    The wife and I just bought a z2900 we really like it . Had a few issues with it . The main one was the main A/C unit they didn't tightens the set screw on the fan and it came apart and broke all apart . We brought it back to dealer and they got it fixed along with the other issues. So far I'm good with everything. Thanks for building a great camper.

    Would like to see Brinkley address the plumbing where they put flexible tubing on pex fittings. Rigor rv tech discovered this in the bedroom slide of Z2900. Not code in house building because will eventually leak, but is OK in an RV? Who designs the plumbing?

    Great job on showing us the inside of Brinkley. We are fairly new to the RV world. As full timers, we are upgrading to a Brinkley G 4000 from. Truck camper. Our unit is scheduled to arrive today. I gained some valuable knowledge by watching these two videos. It provided a base for further study and a list of questions to bring to Brinkley, of which, they answered promptly and professionally. Thank you

  • @marcusaponte1287
    @marcusaponte1287 Рік тому

    Would Brinkley, consider installing LED tail lights that run the length of the toy hauler/ 5th wheel? Not just the standard tail lights, but to make the back end more visible and differentiate the Brand even more from he competition.

      @@oldlostminer I just watched a video last night of the Brinkley factory tour. The guy spent alot of time around the bare frame. They are using the same newer design Rhinobox frame from Lippert that Grand Design is also NOW using on some Momentums including my 2024 415g. I have NOT seen any issues with the Rhinobox design, only the older Lippert 1621 style design has had failures.

    They should offer different trim levels just like car manufacturers. Base, mid-level and Platinum. For eg can you order your Brinkley with disc brakes or different solar according to your needs?

    @aaronbritt2025 Рік тому

    What's the "R factor" of the walls of the G series? A lot of people ask how an RV will perform in the cold, I'm on the other side of the temperature spectrum. How will this do in 120+ degree heat? Will the A/C's be able to keep up? My '07 Beaver Contessa has 3 15k A/C's and they run most of the day in the Summer. The insulation isn't awesome in this unit. Looking for a toy hauler that won't get hot inside.

    • @BigTruckBigRV
      @BigTruckBigRV  Рік тому

      RV r value is always going to be kind of crappy because of the limitations of what they can fit in the wall and the weight. Most of the time, true are value is probably between r6 and r9. Some brands have significantly better because they make their sidewalls thicker, but those brands are often far more expensive.
