Just a suggestion to an already great floor plan, but you know those happyjack type bunks that lower from the ceiling, maybe they could add one in the back office? Really great RV 😊
That little door that you saw right as you step into the rig would be a great place to put up some command hooks and voila! A great spot to keep your keys is ready to go. The drawer that you opened with the little angled racks inside (it was just to the right of the stove) is to hold spices so they can be seen. I absolutely adore the office space. I wouldn’t use the w/d outlet back there… I would leave the stackers in the bedroom. I think Brinkley is really doing things right! We will be seriously considering a Brinkley when we retire in five years. Great job, Myles! You always give us a comprehensive tour which I appreciate so much! These are big ticket items, and the more information we can absorb, the better choice we will make. ❤️❤️
This might be my favorite RV of all time right now. Very considerate design, still being modern. The only thing I wish was that the washer dyers were already set up in the unit, preferably like the set up that comes inside the restroom, in the event there's a leak or anything like that. That extra space needed also means your restroom has a little bit more space. Those couches and seating arrangements are perfeft and the office is perfect. I'm impressed 🎉
I love the blinds in this camper, no fuss. That office is fabulous, loads of storage, and nothing under the desk so you don’t have to watch your knees or sit in an awkward position to avoid something, but you could use some storage bins under there if you wanted to. The kitchen is perfect (I’ll forgive the small vent!), the sink and cook top are centralised so you don’t feel enclosed when you’re trying to do stuff. Is there storage behind the fireplace or is it taken up by the tv going down? I love that the pantry has adjustable shelves. I would prefer the cabinets to go up to the ceiling, it’s just a dust trap otherwise. Good size medicine cabinet and pretty good storage. I don’t like the curtains, I think blinds would be better. Good storage in the bedroom, and a decent mattress! This is a great camper, definitely one to live in! I’d change the colour of the pull out bed, that colour, even stainguarded is going to look rough after a couple of uses! I’d also like reachable bedside stands, for a drink, book, tablet etc. But those are petty things, I know.
Love this overall. My only wishlist item is that the shelves be adjustable. I have problems with fixed shelving all the time... especially in the kitchen if you have larger or taller items, like InstaPot, etc.
In regards to the office space. It is absolutely stunning and I’m very happy. They came out with this model. One thing about Brinkley is they like to listen to their customers and feedback. The same thing I would suggest for the 3250 with a desk is if it can fold down, that would be nice on this particular model. I would suggest having it an L-shaped desk out of two pieces and that way, if this was used for a washer dryer on the left, you could have just your desk on the right and you wouldn’t have to have your desk the entire thing up at a certain height. But if it was in two pieces and when it came together, it was pretty much seamless. I think that would be great and you can just have one piece the longer piece the other piece a shorter piece. You could even fold down one piece or remove one of the pieces and put a beanbag that a kid could sit on while you’re doing your work and they could read or I mean it can be used for anything but I would suggest that. On the 3250 toy hauler they have that 6 foot storage in the toy hauler face and the desk does move up and down, but if I needed to utilize the entire space because the table/desk does not fold down And become flush with the wall, it hinders the space that I can use to put my motorcycle or electric bike in. If I have to pick the entire thing up and remove it out then I have to find a place to store it. I am fixing to purchase my RV this coming week. I really really really wanna buy a Brinkley more than anything.
I am purchasing an RV within the next two weeks to live in full-time. I will be traveling alone. Brinkley‘s feel safe. I believe in everything their company and what stand for. Brinkley goes above and beyond for not just their customers, but outsiders who give their feedback-THEY LISTEN and you feel heard. However, it’s hard to find one model that fits everything that I personally am looking for. I love Brinkley and more than anything. I’ve had my heart set on Brinkley for the last year and a half. Now that it’s come time to buy, I just can’t find one that checks all the boxes for me personally. I have literally spreadsheets and notes on every single Brinkley and I love so many things about each one. I just wish I could put them all together to create what I need. I know that’s not possible. Even though I don’t believe I will end up with a Brinkley, I will still recommend them to anyone anyway. I would recommend Brinkly to anyone any day. I am going to end up probably with the The Durango Gold with the half bunk and the patio or the Heartland Cortana. The Cortana reminds me of Brinkley in a lot of ways. Brinkley, I feel is more farm Halsey the Cortana is more modern, but I absolutely love it. It is lowered price and it would need some adjustments like adding soft hinges and handles on things and the suspension on the raise up bed. That’s all stuff that can be put in for cheap. I know our rabbit trail on this. I just feel like I have so much input on all your videos that I would love to collaborate with you.

@@MarieLamour-cv1jc Ok, so cramming your family or friends into a single-bathroom, one-bedroom RV is the ultimate hack? Cute. So, let’s get real for a second and break it down for those living the full-time RV dream with actual humans. Picture this: you’re a 45-year-old dad road-tripping with your 25-year-old kid, or maybe you’re juggling a grandparent who can’t move around easily alongside a high-energy grandchild, or 2 college friends decide to take a 2 month trip around the US. Sharing one bedroom and bathroom? Brilliant plan… if you love synchronized bathroom schedules. How about finishing your morning coffee and rushing to the commode just to have to wait 10 minutes because your daughter or friend is in the shower? You gonna run out into the campsite woods with a roll of toilet paper, a shovel and a copy of better homes and gardens? Or maybe you want to take a shower and your buddy just dropped the biggest baddest deuce of his life. Separate living spaces unless your married or dating is common sense. And about the whole “just share a bedroom” idea. Full-time RV living isn’t a weekend camping trip. It’s a lifestyle. Without separate bedrooms, you’re not just giving up privacy; you’re signing up for constant lack of your own space, nowhere to get away if needed, and eventually the slow build-up to a mental breakdown. Separate bedrooms give you a sanctuary, a place to escape and without that, you might as well start practicing your “I can’t take it anymore” speech now. And then there’s the snoring situation. Oh, you think it’s no big deal? Try sleeping in a metal box where the person next to you sounds like a chainsaw with a vendetta. Snoring is just the beginning-what about when you’re a night owl and your partner’s a 9 p.m. lights-out type? Or when you just need a break from people? Separate bedrooms aren’t a luxury; they’re a sanity saver. Everyone needs their own space to recharge, especially when you’re living in each other's pockets 24/7. Without it, you’re just a noise complaint waiting to happen. Now, let’s tackle the “just fix your diet” crowd. Unless you’ve got a magic wand to cure sleep apnea, mobility issues, or other medical conditions, an extra bathroom isn’t just "nice to have"-it's essential. Some of us live in the real world, where not everything can be solved with kale smoothies or a diet tweak. Accessibility matters, and when you’re in a 240-square-foot space, having an extra bathroom can be the difference between a functional trip and a logistical nightmare. Worried about plumbing issues with more bathrooms? Fair. But let me paint a picture: you’re in the middle of nowhere, and your only toilet decides today’s the day it takes a vacation. Now imagine that with five people and one bathroom. Yeah, not pretty. More bathrooms might mean more potential for plumbing drama, but having only one bathroom in an RV is a disaster in the making-especially when you're miles from the nearest repair shop. So, let's get real: thinking you can cram your entire family into a single-bathroom, one-bedroom RV and expect it to be a magical experience is like thinking you can solve world hunger with a bag of chips. Separate bedrooms and bathrooms aren't just a luxury; they're common sense. It's like saying you don't need a kitchen because you can just eat out every meal. RV living is about enjoying the journey, not enduring it. So, ditch the delusions and start planning your space accordingly. Your sanity will thank you.
This is defo my favorite Brinkley so far with one detail exception. Those wurthers original toffee beige recliners. Would much rather have black or dark grey to match the kitchen appliances.
A little too small - need more room around the king bed, and the right recliner having the island in front of it is a non-starter (this is not an issue with my 2015 Montana with the same living room layout)

This is a lifer camper. I could live comfortably without any regrets for a decade out of this one. 99 out of 100 (damn near perfect)
Just a suggestion to an already great floor plan, but you know those happyjack type bunks that lower from the ceiling, maybe they could add one in the back office? Really great RV 😊
I love the office, it's my favorite feature on a Brinkley. Not that I don't love everything about a Brinkley! ❤
Bro, that shower is nicer than my own shower 😮❤
Yes washer and dryer prep… saw the guy that was testing the proto a few weeks back. Desk stays
I love this, especially the craft room....I mean "office". LOL My only request would be an additional half bath. ;P

Also ive seen this one on other RV channels, that was definitely washer dryer prep in the office, either combo or side by side😊
Interesting... how would that work? Fits under the desk?
@@anapantz yeah that's it, under the desks, or you could have them on the bedroom still :)
@@Lyran7 Ooooohhh... this trailer is pretty awesome... love that option. Thanks for the info.
Whee! The office desk is really cool! Great to be able to stand or sit when working!
A beautiful looking medicine cabinet mirror? 😅 Did I hear that right? Maybe I missed something.
Oh... haha. The mirror isn't anything fancy, but yes the cabinet is nice. Wow. Everything looks so nice! Very residential feel to this RV.
A new favorite! Thanks for showing this one!

Myles, if you could pick ANY RV drive or tow (ANY PRICE, ANY MODEL) with 2 full bedrooms/2 full baths what would it be ?

Amazing!
I really like the office!
Maybe the extra plumbing in the office gives people a choice to have a laundry room or an office, if they don't want the laundry in the bedroom.
This is correct! More choices is a good thing :)
This is defo my favorite Brinkley so far with one detail exception. Those wurthers original toffee beige recliners. Would much rather have black or dark grey to match the kitchen appliances.
The addition of QR codes is a nice touch🤘
No complaints here!
One of the reasons we are seriously considering this model is the W/D hookups in the office. This will allow more closet space in the bedroom.
Can they build one with a full size Jacuzzi?
Now you're talking!
Covers on the slideouts would be a great feature.
They are available :)
Im new to your channel and i think you do a top notch job of showing and explaining everything.
Thank you! Glad you’re here!
The only thing missing on this beauty is an Ice maker.
A little too small - need more room around the king bed, and the right recliner having the island in front of it is a non-starter (this is not an issue with my 2015 Montana with the same living room layout)
No skylight in the shower. That’s the reason for the light.
You have the option of making it a laundry room or office. Just raise the desk
That is correct! What a great feature 😀
I like it, very nice just don't like it enough to bring 40 feet with me!
Ya, for Me, this isn't a CAMPING trailer! It's more of a LIVE IN Or destination Trailer!
Lower it down😆
The uneven joint on that slide out trim really bugs me
@MarieLamour-cv1jc at the 4:00 mark top left of trim, he runs his hand over it. It's minor but jumps out lol
