You need to know all the details so you can know if it\u2019s the RV to get you out living adventurously. We understand it\u2019s important for you to get this information now, so you can decide if you should pre-order before it\u2019s too late. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bish\u2019s own Josh the RV Nerd<\/a> <\/strong>was given first access to the Model G 3500 prototype and many Bish\u2019s locations will be selling Brinkley RVs. Now we can share all the details with you! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here we\u2019ll provide the information you need to know if the model G has the features and design you want, so you can decide not only if this RV is right for you but also if it\u2019s one you want to pre-order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

What is the Brinkley Model G 3500?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Brinkley Model G 3500 is a luxurious, 40\u20192\u201d long, 16,660 lb (dry), fifth wheel toy hauler.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luxury and Versatility<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Brinkley makes luxury their standard, so expect a jaw dropping interior and innovative, game changing features on this RV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not only is the Model G luxurious, but it\u2019s incredibly adaptable for many different living or camping situations. Brinkley has taken versatility so far in the flex space\/garage of the 3500, that the phrase toy hauler doesn\u2019t do this RV full justice. This one stands in a class of its own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This model is currently in prototype, so some features may change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

How Much Does a Brinkley Model G Toyhauler Cost?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The MSRP (manufacturer suggested retail price) is $183,000 – $195,000<\/strong> for a Model G 3500.

The actual sale price may be lower than this, because dealers aren’t allowed to show prices below MSRP for Brinkley RVs. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Model G was priced at $149, 995 at the 2023 Utah Sportsman, Vacation and RV Show in Salt Lake City, Utah in mid-February. So what you actually pay could be closer to this price, though show pricing can be lower than average. Learn more here about how RV list prices work.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is the Model G Right for Me?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This RV is perfect if you have luxury in mind, love to have some space while you live and camp, and appreciate the flex space created by the garage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re looking for a toyhauler because you need to load the garage full of this, that and the other, yes, you can definitely do that with the model G. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don\u2019t need to load the garage, however, this could still be the right RV for you. The garage creates options for adult-sized sleeping quarters, theater and entertaining space, or even office space if you need a quiet place to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Model G is ideal if you want to park long-term at your destination, if you\u2019re a road warrior who is out and about regularly, or if you\u2019re someone who loves the very latest RV and all the new features.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why This May Not be the RV for You<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This fifth-wheel is not for everyone. There is a lot of upfront investment with the Brinkley Model G that may not be worth paying for if you only plan to RV for a couple years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may want to consider a less expensive camper with fewer bells and whistles if you think you\u2019ll want to RV for a short time before you resell your RV. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Model G also may not be the right fit for you if you are looking to casually RV for a few weekends a summer. You may want to try a less expensive and\/or smaller camper for irregular, short weekend getaways before committing to something as big and expensive as the model G.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Model G 3500 Toyhauler Pros:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dual Fuel Generator<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

True to form, this RV is all about flexibility and giving you options. Even when it comes to the generator. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The flex power 5500i generator can run off gas or<\/em> propane. With the flip of a lever inside the RV, the generator can even change fuel sources while it is running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brinkley has added a pull start option to give you flexibility even when it comes to firing up the generator. If you\u2019re out away from civilization this means you don\u2019t need to use your RV\u2019s battery to start the generator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Factory Standard Solar Package<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The model G comes standard with 800w on the roof, a 60amp mppt charge controller, and 2000w inverter.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Josh the RV Nerd has seen a lot of RVs with solar and says the Model G has \u201cone of the most aggressive standard solar packages [he\u2019s] ever seen.\u201d 200 watts is fairly commonplace, but the Model G comes with 4x that! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The inverter enables you to use your household plugs without running the generator. Once again, this RV is all about giving you the freedom to camp where you want how you want without depending on hookups or needlessly using your battery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Meticulously Designed, Incredible Kitchen<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This is not just the best kitchen for this type of RV, but a contender for best kitchen in any<\/em> RV. The whole thing is a star. Here are some of its best features. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A countertop level kitchen island flips up to become a kitchen peninsula. This allows you to choose more countertop space without losing room to move around inside your RV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/td><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

There is a ton<\/em> of storage space in this fifth wheel kitchen (and in the whole RV, while we\u2019re at it.). You\u2019ll find a pull-out pantry with fully adjustable shelves, drop down silverware and knife storage and plenty of cabinet and drawer space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t feel bad if you also want to take a minute to drool over the cabinets themselves. Brinkley dialed the style factor up to 11 with this one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Flex Space\/Garage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Garage only sort of describes this space, since it can be used in so many different ways. Here are some of its best features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Tie down system:<\/strong>  With 3 rows of tie downs that connect to a steel structure in the floor every 5 inches there is no need to fight for tie down space. You\u2019ll find more than enough for every use case. Motorcycles, dog kennels, kayaks? If you\u2019re carrying it, you can tie it down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/strong><\/td><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A fully enclosed garage floor<\/strong>:  This is the best weather barrier on any toy hauler garage. Because the floor is enclosed you\u2019ll have better climate control that gives you the flexibility to really USE the space however you want. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Better climate control means more options (did I not mention this RV is all about options, options, options?). A comfortable office, a spare bedroom, a fun hangout space? All possible and possible for most of the year. You won\u2019t be sweating in the summer and freezing in the fall and spring with the Model G.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Bathroom<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Yeah, the bathroom is pretty, but it looks like most RV bathrooms at a glance. Look a little closer and you\u2019ll find the obsessive Brinkley attention to detail. Every little thing is just done better than the rest. These little benefits make a big difference as you use the RV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The indirect lighting, for example, is placed above the shower so you aren\u2019t dependent on a skylight in the day and never have to shower in the dark at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The mirror is a medicine cabinet, but it\u2019s also recessed to be flush with the wall, giving you more storage space without making the bathroom feel cramped.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of storage space, just like the amazing kitchen pantry, the bathroom has a pull-out linen storage cabinet full of all adjustable shelves and you\u2019ll find extra storage in the bathroom cabinet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Exterior Storage<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Just because there is a garage, doesn\u2019t mean Brinkley skimped on exterior storage. You\u2019ll find extra space to keep things packed a little more comfortably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Function AND Form<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The model G is sleek and clean to look at, but Brinkley didn\u2019t choose form over function. When you get this RV home you\u2019ll find little surprises you didn\u2019t even realize it offers. These hidden perks make it extra functional. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The speakers, for example, are all hidden from plain sight, but we challenge you to find a better sound system on any RV. The exterior has a hidden outdoor fridge drawer perfect for relaxing outside with a drink. You\u2019ll also find helpful pull out trays for things like pet dishes or as a place to put wet\/muddy shoes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These features are a sampling of what\u2019s available on the model. Check out Josh the RV Nerd\u2019s video walkthrough to see the bedroom, living space, construction quality and other features of this RV.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
