You missed a small but unique feature of the kitchen island design - the hole in the cutting board is not just a hand-hold, it is also positioned directly over a garbage bin when board and bin drawer are fully opened. Very handy to discard scaps from the board.
The sound system has a 12" subwoofer in the slide out behind the recliners. Really thumps and sounds incredible. The lights are dimable inside I love that the cutting board has a hole in it so you can pull out the trash bins and scrape your mess right in them. Also above the sink is a utinsel tray. Spice rack and pot storage is by the oven. People that say no nightstand. There are shelves above the windows with usb ports for your phones and what not. There is a tv in the back garage. Also hidden storage in the main living area above and below the tv. You wont know its there untill you pull on what looks like part of the wall. :)
One of the better reviews I’ve seen frankly. Couple things you missed. 1. Convection microwave 2. Floor storage in garage near porch doors 3. Rack above sink is utensil holder 4. Rack next to stove is spice rack 5. On couch side of island there is a dog tray that pull out when the counter top chairs are by floating island side of island. 6. Pretty sure the 50amp cable on the G is a flat cable vice round cable. 7. All lights are dimmable 8. Exterior is automotive paint not decals 9. Roof is 10 year warranty if memory serves me correctly 10. Cutting board opening in right side is so you can scrap debris into trash can by pulling that out while using the cutting board. 11. Sponge holder in front of sink drawer
I’m absolutely in love with this TH 😍 I’m waiting for the 4000 model with the 16ft garage to arrive at a local dealer so I can check it out. The 3500 is absolutely beautiful and Brinkley thought of nearly everything that an rv’er could want. I’m so glad they put the loft bed in the garage. My kids all prefer to be together anyway. One cool thing about the sofa is that the end seats have massagers and all of the seats recline. Very luxurious. Can never go wrong with Thomas Payne furniture. Well done Brinkley!
Absolutely love the video. Would have liked to have seen a ballpark figure for this toy hauler. First time seeing your video Justin. You did an amazing job. Good job.
Glad you enjoyed it! We typically don't put the prices in the videos themselves because the prices change over time. For the most accurate pricing, we highly recommend calling us, or visiting our website!
Justin, that was the most impressive presentation I’ve seen from anybody about any RV. Wow, you nailed it. If I were Brinkley I’d be stealing you from your boss and putting you on the national team for promoting their products. Hopefully they will see your talent and give you a shameless bribe to join their team. Good work! I’m looking forward to your promotion of their model Z. ❤
25:00 mark ..... you try not to sh** in the couch? 😂 Yeah, me too.... Sorry, I just couldn't help but point that out..... you had me laughing to tears. Very comprehensive tour (despite a few features missed.... nobody's perfect).
Okay first, Brinkley needs this video on their website! That was the definition of thorough and the best Brinkley 3500 video out there. Here are my issues with this model which are cosmetic. First the couch color is horrible along with the bar stool cushions. And in my opinion, the cabinet hardware should be black. That gold just does not pop. Same with the kitchen faucet. And the lighting over the kitchen island is a wtf moment. However, we’re traveling to Beckleys Saturday to look at this rig a well as the Momentum 395ms which undid a great job on as well. Thank you! Great job!
Thank you for watching and more importantly thank you for the kind words! I have a jam packed day on Saturday- however if you ask for me, would love to take some time to show you all around! cheers.
Totally agree with you on the color of the sofa and chairs. It doesn’t help the flow. Do not like the gold hardware either. So much thought, planning, and amenities in this model, but in my opinion, they dropped the ball with this color scheme.
Good job Justin The only thing I can't understand about so many rv manufacturers is why don't you put a handrail on the garage stairs? Now that they have the stick one, that would work great.
Just a suggestion, it would be a great change that on the z3500 to replace the plastic sinks in the bathrooms with stainless sinks like the kitchen. This would carry the quality to another level. Great job on this unit! Thanks Tom
Flat out BEST professional sales representative I've ever had the pleasure to deal with. Thank you Justin. We LOVE our new Brinkley!!!! What a magnificent product.. Happy customer for life.
Love love love this. Would the Cinderella incinerator toilets work in this? Where ate the vents? A 8ft garage, so the living space was bigger, Definitely need shelving by beds. A bed head lift for reading, TV, coffee,
Can the garage bed come all the way down on top of the happy jack bed? If I just have a couple visiting, they may prefer the actual bed mattress over the happy jack bed.... and might not like climbing up to it.
Great question...most Happy Jack bed systems do have ways to adjust the position of the top bed up or down. Inside the track, at each track there is a stop plate which you can unscrew and set at a different height. Thanks for watching!
Nice trailer don’t like that everyone went with those big refrigerators. I have trouble keeping things tight in a smaller one. Also you repeated that there are a lot of speakers. I hope you never have to park next to someone who think it’s great to blared them. Also the sofa is nice but it’s a pain to walk past it putting up and down the foot rest every time some one wants to pass by. As some one who has done ALOT of camping I think you are on the right track.
all solid and good points though. thank you for watching and your good feedback. there is an area in the passthrough storage you could connect an outside TV, dishwashers create a lot of gray water + take away from the exceptional storage, go queen bed vs king and get stand stands.
I strongly encourage you to do a side by side comparison in person of other toy haulers and you’ll find that this one has exceptional build quality & has a lot of thoughtful extras that other haulers don’t have. Bish’s Rv did a factory tour of Brinkley and you should see the quality control measures each of these rigs go through before making their way to the customer. I’d gladly forgo the dishwasher and a couple other things to get the peace of mind that my rig isn’t going to end up sitting for months at the dealer waiting on warranty repairs 😬 This thing is solid as a rock.
Good (typical) salesman but he at least has more product video sales knowledge than most, all NEW models/man's start out great then like ALL the rest they start the decline Saw multiple models at show and they ALL had defects, not good when folks are looking for better quality especially for the early pricing they have on the sticker If you have this kind of money to spend i recommend another manf such as Luxe? This manf is on the right track but they just are not there yet, time will tell if they hang in there? I wish em luck!!
@@BeckleysRV a Mercedes just like all other brands have reduced pricing, as the saying goes $ talks bs walks, I have seen $249k luxes sell for $99k at end of model year, just like anything else you just have to be patient and pay attention 🤠

@@meseahunt Don't disagree, profit is NOT a bad word. However, me personally (Mikey B) doing this for 20 years and our company selling RVs since 1980, to see a price reduction of 60% is unheard of for us. For example, we have a diesel pusher marked down $160k, almost the amount you are saying on the Luxes, but this motorhome started at $569k, more than double the Luxe. Again, not saying your wrong in your thought process, just saying Luxe's offering that much of a discount on a new product is either priced too high to begin with in this industry, or, very desperate in this market. I'm going to say the later because as of August, per the national survey stats of registrations, they have only found homes for 53 Luxes. And by the way, our industry is only down 16% in sales.
As soon as Brinkley addresses the water/plumbing/clamp issues that isn't a correct way to plumb, this will be the best, (IMO) unit in the world and then It will be on my list to own. If that's been addressed, let me know.
@@BeckleysRVI'm a BIG fan of the upstairs living area of a couple of the Grand Design models. I recommended GD to my daughter and she immediately had bad leaks close to the water heater. (New unit). After I saw the floor plan of the Brinkley 3950 I thought I had found my perfect unit. After seeing what they're using for pex/plumbing, it looks like I'll have to wait until they follow suit as Alliance did recently.
.... or, if you like this floorplan the best, have the fittings changed. Maybe $250 by a plumber.... or the dealer does it for free as an incentive at purchase?

Can y’all do a video on the Brinkley G 3950? Sorry if you already have, but I couldn’t find it. I appreciate Justin’s thorough walk through!
One of the best presentations ive seen. This this man a raise!
Thanks, and appreciate you watching our video!
Great job Justin ❤for the very detailed and professional walk-through tour.
Nice quality and nice looking Brinkley ! Awesome
Thank you kindly! Glad you liked it!
I recommend moving the spice rack away from the sink as the humidity from washing dishes will ruin your spices.
Great Tip!
That’s actually for extra flatware. The spice rack pulls out to the left of the stove.
Excellent video, well done!

How about adding independent suspension? MR makes an independent suspension, but the CRE isn't it.
Justin! Put your socks on! My feet felt sweaty and hot the whole time! Nice job anyway!
Us here at the office are pooling together cash to get him no-show socks 🦨🤣
I want it!
Love love love this.
Would the Cinderella incinerator toilets work in this?
Where ate the vents?
A 8ft garage, so the living space was bigger,
Definitely need shelving by beds.
A bed head lift for reading, TV, coffee,
@JustinShanholtzer can you help us out with this question Mr. Brinkley expert :)
Wow incredible
We think so too!
Very nice
Awesome!
Glad you think so!

❤ beautiful ❤
What is the total square footage of this toy hauler minus the deck?
approx 380 sq ft
The speakers under the unit need to be secured better, Over a bumpy roard they will fall out and you will loose them.
They are mounted into the steel framework - outriggers we believe is what they are called. Thanks for watching!
Beautiful 5th wheel, what is the price?
Depending on options...can range approx $150-180k.
Nice trailer don’t like that everyone went with those big refrigerators. I have trouble keeping things tight in a smaller one. Also you repeated that there are a lot of speakers.

No outside television. No Dishwasher and a cheap cord reel. Lastly are no nightstands. Nice layout but missing a lot of things for this price point.
all solid and good points though. thank you for watching and your good feedback.
