I wished the Brinkley made it in a dropped frame. We really loved the look of the Brinkley, but we thought the TV was to high, storage isn’t enough and wide body is our preference. The Paradigms have been hit and missed recently. We just looks at them again this past weekend, and the 3 we looked at all had shoddy workmanship. We decided the Geand Design Solitude was the one for us. Every Grand Design we’ve toured have been exceptionally made, and the attention to detail was on point. I think Brinkley’s will be just as Grand as the Grand Designs🙌🏼

Wendy, all RV consumers need to stick together regarding units being pushed on us by unscrupulous manufacturers, salespeople and dealers. I urge you to reconsider any decision to purchase a Brinkley or Alliance. I feel if you look closely at these two, you will find that they do not produce any original engineering or design practices for components or whole rigs. They both plagiarize the work of actual mechanical, automotive or electrical engineers of companies like Forest River/Rockwood or Jayco.Question: What do you call the research and development departments of Brinkley or Alliance? Answer: The Keystone Innovation Lab. Alliance and Brinkley (and Grand Design to good measure) copy any new or better component from Keystone. This saves them money because they don't have to pay for any engineers or designers on their own payroll. You don't need to take my advice. It is offered as a word of caution to a fellow RVer. Best wishes for a great RV Summer.

I do not like east-west bed slides for the simple reason that I have yet to see one that provides an adequate night stand. I do not require a cpap machine (at least, not yet). But like many folks, I do need night table space for my water glass, cell phone, tablet and "stuff." The large night stands provided by Keystone, Jayco, and Rockwood in their mid-profile 5thWs with North-South oriented bedrooms draw my attention for potential purchase. Plus, these three manufacturers are more reliable than any plagiarized slapdash model from Brinkley or Alliance.

Having been an RV'er for 15 years, hauling a 37 ft. 5'ver with 700 watts of solar and 300 amps of battery. I can tell you that the Brinkley rig, being a toy hauler is made for going out and setting up for a week or two of using 4 wheelers, or dirt bikes. You will definably need a 1 ton dually to haul it. You'll also need triple the solar, and triple the amperage to run your stuff, especially that double door, residential fridge. Washing clothes will use a ton of water, and drying them will use a ton of your amps. (anything that heats pulls a ton of amps) The shelves in the bedroom is not a good idea because everything will be falling off them as you drive down the road. Remember if it's cloudy or raining your not doing much charging. We carry a Honda 3000i generator that we use to top off the batteries in the evening for about 45 mins. and again in the morning when making coffee, and breakfast and topping off the batteries for the day. Best rule of thumb for solar is: For every 100 amps of battery you should have 300 watts of solar. When you camp in the mountains and the sun has to clear the mountains in the morning you may not get any charging till 10 or 11 am. And if it goes down in the afternoon by 4, or 5 pm behind mountains you have a short day of charging. That's when the generator comes in handy. Oh, and don't park under trees if you need to charge.😋 My credentials: Electrical Engineer

Hey Uncle Josh, Tex here, proud member of the Nerd Hurd. Another fine video. I’m not an owner of a camper/RV, never have; however I am considering it. Perhaps when I retire in less than 6 years. I use your channel as well as BTBRV, RV Wingman, Dr. Hannah, and RV Inspection Care Guide as research to help me decide on what I may want to purchase. Can I make a couple of suggestions for a couple of videos (or shorts)? 1) Do a video on the best way to rent an RV? These units are expensive. I believe that you are genuine when you want people to do their homework first and that you truly are looking out for our wallets. I believe that the best way for potential newbies such as myself is to rent the different types first prior to buying. If we enjoy the experience then that would lead to future sales for the industry. 2) Could you do either a full length or short video that describes what all the different model letters means? Thank you.

Josh. Question Can i pull a Heartland Milestone 321 FL with a 2015 GMC 3500 SLE 6.0 Gas Flex Fuel Truck Long Bed Crew Cab? Appreciate all your video s and learning from you. I Just get confused on the hitch weight and all the other Gvw and gcvw stuff . There will be no washer dryer and my truck bed will be empty and it will be stationary for a few months at a canpground if i can pull it.

Apologies without specific truck ratings I cannot say with confidence. There are so many truck configurations I cannot definitively reference the ratings of your vehicle from the info provided

@@JoshtheRVNerd thanks for responding big guy. From my research I think the truck can carry 14600 on a fifth wheel the dry weight of the camper is 10500 or so I guess we will see if I purchase the camper. Can't believe how complicated this is. To know for sure. So knowing the truck exact model and the camper is not enough. What are truck ratings. ?

@@bho8906 you need to compare several things in theory but two major ones: First, you want to compare that FW tow rating on the truck to the GVW of the rv - not the dry weight. That ensures you stay safe even when loaded You also want to compare the hitch weight of the rv vs the payload rating on your vehicle. Here’s a video explaining more on that as well as a quick way to estimate loaded hitch weight of the rv with pretty fair accuracy: m.kzitem.info/news/bejne/r594nGFqf36jrIo

Currently we do not. Our nearest store would be in Anderson, Indiana just outside of Indianapolis... which obviously isn't THAT close to you

Yep. That video had been around for a while back before my home store joined with Bish's RV. You may not have been aware of that history

GD is a great company. You'll see I've recorded quite a few and I do really like/respect what they're doing. But for how I personally camp and the things I seek there seems to often be something else I'd personally gravitate towards. Your list or the next person's could look totally different

I'm not a hauler-person myself. But the features on that Model G are pretty crazy and I found it very exciting to go thru.
