It was our pleasure, thank YOU for showing it off 😊 We hope your fulltime adventures take you to amazing places together and we hope we see you down the road again soon!
Traveling as a family is such a rewarding challenge. As a full-time RV family, we’ve been exploring ways to make it even more meaningful-it’s inspiring to connect with others doing the same!
Shortly after leaving the army in 1972 Rosie and I started kicking around the idea of camping. Soon after getting back on our feet financially working 7-day weeks and long hours we bought a tent camper and headed around the country. 50 plus years later and now on our eighth fifth wheel we are still on the road at least six months a year. I like to busk and hit jam sessions and open mics, so it really has been good. We currently own a Z3100 by Brinkley and love it. Enjoy your travel and no regrets! Burlington Bill busking on the road and on my you tube music site!
I think you will enjoy it for a long time, but as stated by other families when your children want to get involved in a more organized school programs. It becomes an issue especially if you have gifted children that could lead to them College Scholarships they are not privy too in a home schooled environment, while constantly moving. Don’t get me wrong. We are an older couple with 7 children and soon to be 9 grandchildren As retirement approaches we will transition to full time RVing. It’s going to be great to be able to spend 6-8 weeks visiting family spread out from Texas to Florida to Alabama to Kentucky and boondocking in the West
Congratulations on starting your next adventure. My wife and I retired in May of 2022, bought an Airstream and started traveling in June. We bought our Brinkley last July and love it. Brinkley RV is a great company and their customer service is second to none. Enjoy your travels with the kiddos and stay safe.
My apartment lease is up in about 9 months. New job is 100% remote. Want a 2024 3950 G w/ gen_y gooseneck.Also want 8k axels. and 2024 F450 Limited to go full time. Thinking Polaris Expedition XD 2 seater. Love all this info. Getting myself ready to make the plunge.
Hi we loved this video! We are always in amazement about how large the RVs are in America they are about the size of a small apartment here in England 😂. Our motorhome would like tiny next to that RVs. We loved the tour and video. Thank you for showing us around. All the best Chelsea and Mike 😊
Thanks for the house tour, always neat seeing how. & why people buy what they buy and how they make it their own. That being said, is that a Giant Schnauzer? We aren't full time yet, we hope to do so sooner rather then later.
Thanks for the video. We just ordered a 3250. We both are retiring next year and are upgrading our small toy hauler. We like the rear garage office space. Its perfect for our 6 dogs. We have a patio on our toy hauler now and love it. We went with Brinkley because of all the reviews and stuff. I love the fact that you can call them and a real person answers the phone.
Congrats!! I’m about to post a video on our channel about our experience with customer care because they’ve had our 3950 for the past few weeks! It’s been a good experience though!
Beautiful rig. Just to big for the two of us. We have a Torque T26 travel trailer and did purchase the patio tent before they were discontinued. We still have it and love it. Good to hear they are looking to be back in stock. Happy travels!
Looking forward to your RUclips channel. My husband & I are not full time yet. We travel in our Tiffin Zephyr , but love the Brinkley. We watch Wild RV Life, with Victoria & Craig who also have a Brinkley. Also, we are from Houston too, well The Woodlands. Safe Travels!
Congrats! Wish you the best on your journey. We just started full timing a few months ago. It was a toss up for the Brinkley or the 2 bedroom model we ended up going with.
Congrats on being one of the few that tugs a 3950... Beautiful Coach! Does it draw attention as a new Brinkley? Enjoyed the video, very informative from an Owner perspective view. Like you mentioned seeing this 5th advertised, this is the model we've been waiting for... and it was nice hearing from a 3950 Owner. Brinkley was the direction we decided as the Brand due to quality and design. The 3950 is their best yet... unless they have a new toy hauler in the works. We're close... 2-3 yrs out, We'll be a retired Couple, with 5 cats... using the Garage/Den to haul a SmartCar and convert to Office Den during stays. Toyhaulers are normally built with the design weight distribution specifically for garaged toy of choice... in your situation, I'd assume you're having more Goose ball Weight than if hauling a 2200+ Toy(s) in rear. How does your Ram Diesel do on towing the RV, how's the 3950 handle & travel on the less than ideal highways, cross winds, braking? Getting it around, does it feel a lot bigger or more challenging to tow and back into spots? We just purchased a '24 F450 Limited, that I'm currently adding a few more features for the Puller. A 3950 Family... subscribed @TacticalTrekkers
Check out their channel to find out more about their travel life soon 😊 They also have an SUV so two vehicles helps. We do know of a few families who utilize the middle front truck seat and seat 6 in a pickup.
Brinkley is great about customer feedback and people weren’t wild about the comfort of the u-couch. There’s a new L-shaped option coming in the 2025s. We prefer the U simply because there are so many of us, but the new sofa looks amazing!!
Please make sure that you weigh your fifth wheel and truck at a minimum to make sure that you’re running the correct tire pressure. And just to make sure you don’t have too much weight on any axle including your pin weight. To make it easier to power reel your cord in use a clean rag or cotton towel to keep the cord clean as it goes in as a dirty cord will make it bind and hard on the motor.
What are the AK axles and disk brakes you mention? Would love to get more information on what you feel is a superior axle and brake set up. I believe Brinkley should offer at least a disc brake upgrade to those that want it right from the factory. This is a big heavy rig that deserves the best suspension possible for full-time rv owners.
Most fifth wheels come standard with 7k axles and drum brakes. If you upgrade from the factory to 8k axles it also comes with disc brakes and the new capacity will reflect on the trailer's weight rating. Thanks for watching!
Yep, @rvyourway is spot on. We chose to upgrade from 7K to 8K axles which also included an upgrade to disc brakes. With a rig this size we can use all the stopping power we can get!
Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a tour of our home!!

@@rvyourway you are very welcome
Love y'all videos... Thank you so much for sharing
Thank you so much for the kind words! It really does mean a lot to us 🥰
Very nices home
Nice home
Thanks so much!
Thanks for the house tour, always neat seeing how. & why people buy what they buy and how they make it their own. That being said, is that a Giant Schnauzer? We aren't full time yet, we hope to do so sooner rather then later.
He’s a Bouvier Des Flandres but he gets mistaken for a giant schnauzer all the time! 😂
Love this video. We Pick our 3950 up on the 9th of July and full RV living starts.
Oh my goodness, how exciting!!! We remember those feelings! Congrats and welcome to the fulltime RVing community! 😃
Congrats to you guys!! 🎉
Congrats! We're just two retirees and a dog and love our Brinkley Z3100.
Nice!!!

Congrats! Wish you the best on your journey. We just started full timing a few months ago. It was a toss up for the Brinkley or the 2 bedroom model we ended up going with.
Welcome to the fulltime RVing community! 🤩We love the dual suite models and just toured a bunch of those as well. They give you a lot of options!
We were in the Brinkley tour with you! Vicki and Randy Ross!

Hey there! We’ve had zero issues with towing. My husband actually says this is the easiest rig to tow that we’ve ever owned!
Love it
good job folks - have a great time - YT is great as it makes you document your journey - what you share is up to you. Be safe out there! God bless!
Can you do a video on how your family of 6 fits in the truck? I'm about add a 4th kid and looking to see how the front bench works.

Thanka so much for the video. Was wondermg if you has a waaher and dryer and if so where did you put it... ❤❤❤
Shessh.....business must have been amazing. I definitely did it wrong by not being able to buy a business flat out.
We have seen this floorplan but wondered how the couch area would work living in it fulltime. Great tour!

@@rvyourway What is a clam?
@@sashabenoit1518 Quick-set Clam is a pop-up tent screen room. They are really easy to setup, just takes a couple minutes. We love ours!
Hard to find camp sites big enough? Limited to rv resorts? State parks?
How does the Dodge Ram do pulling it?
How much for something like that?
What was the base price for it
Being a family of 6 I didn't see a washer/dryer
It’s in the master bedroom! I’ll post a more in-depth tour on our channel so people can see the nitty gritty of where all our stuff goes 🤪
🎉❤
Easy when you have mad money!
Thank you 2024/11/11
Why didn't she show how the beds looked down or the kids relax space. She's not very good at giving a tour. People wanna see how these look
“Crusty old veterans”? Horrible comment.
