Brinkley RV just introduced a flood of new models for 2026, and in the half-hour video at the end of this article, Josh Winters (Josh the RV Nerd) of Bish’s RV provides a brief but useful overview of them all. If you’re interested in buying a Brinkley towable RV (trailer, fifth wheel or toy hauler) or are just curious about what’s new for 2026, Josh will “show and tell” you enough to get you moving in the right direction.
Josh promises detailed long-form video tours to follow of each new model: This is just a very quick peek for now of each one. He calls the video a teaser of what’s to come.
We’ve summed up Josh’s comments below, but we highly recommend you watch the video which is at the bottom of this article.
Starting small: The new Ix 20X
The tiniest Brinkley just got a small sibling, the new 20X, and, says Josh, it has “rockstar potential.” You no longer need choose between a sofa or dining, you get both. The Murphy bed design is very smart, and the lounge offers two seating choices. Other highlights:
- Cloth-touch hide-a-bed or buckskin theater seats
- Dishwasher prep under the sink
- Big stovetop, with a small tradeoff in counter space
- 18,000 BTU Furrion Chill Cube to turn the cabin ice cold in hot weather
Outside, IX and Model I share painted aluminum skin. The full Model I adds a candy-coated nose cap, so you can tell them apart at a glance.
Murphy bed innovation in the 20X
The 60-by-78-inch Murphy bed is smartly designed. During the day, the space serves as a couch, then at night a bed for two. Josh has high praise for the design, and we agree.
Rear kitchen trend across Brinkley RV
Brinkley took the fan-favorite G 3950 and 3250 living room vibe and brought it to non-toy haulers with new rear kitchens. A smart waterfall-edge, flip-up countertop extension fills the gap when the slide opens, and a safety sensor stops the slide from closing if the flip-up is raised. A cheap sensor, a big money saver. Rear kitchens for destination use are simply awesome.
Full Model I upgrades
Step into the full Model I for more height and space. No skylight needed, thanks to the taller ceiling. You also get a wraparound quadruple recliner and a 66-by-80 Olympic queen bed.
Every Brinkley RV still includes better tires, plumbing, and suspension.
Model Z AIR 315 travel trailer
The Z AIR bumps you to a full 7-foot ceiling, so you feel the space right away. Taller slides, bigger windows, and more storage change daily use.
- Solid surface counters, full privacy
- Easy lift bunks
- Three seat hide-a-bed across from a true entertainment center
- One-piece fiberglass shower and XL bath fan
Model Z AIR bedroom and exterior tweaks
You get a true queen here, while Model I keeps the Olympic queen. Many floor plans add a bedroom fireplace. Outside, look for subtle gold trim accents, a camp kitchen with sink and 12V fridge, and a rare full towing hitch on a travel trailer.
Model Z fifth wheels: Paint and floor plans
New paint packages pop, says Josh, with metallic and bold Porsche gold options.
Model Z 2700
An alternative to the 2900 that fits extended stays and likely 3/4 ton tow setups. Expect opposing slides with a mega entertainment center, a lighter upper deck that still fits a big bath and shower, plus a north-south bed with closet slide. Upgraded pin box and touring coil spring suspension improve ride and handling.
Model Z 3200
The lower deck matches the 2700. Up front, you get an east-west bed with a front closet and bedroom slide, stackable washer and dryer prep, and a king option. Rear kitchen details were tested for feedback and they will give it a consolidated look at some point.
Model G Series toy haulers
Model G 3520
Think 3500 vibe, fresh living room. Direct viewing to the TV, the island doesn’t block sightlines, and split theater seats replace the super sofa. Counter space improves. You still get the clever pop down cutlery drawers. The garage brings a three-season walkthrough door with locking pegs. There is an option for a half-bath delete, if you don’t want the half-bath but want maximum cargo space. Paint options include metallic and Porsche gold.
Model G 4150 and 4155
Two distinct models share the same living room, flipped north-south like a Model G 3950 for a different orientation. The 4150 brings a front office that actually feels roomy. The 4155 swaps that for a front bunk, great if you want kids up front near you. Storage is massive, and the cargo ratings let you use it. The 4155’s extended front deck creates a giant forward compartment with drop walls to section gear. It also keeps a collapsible half bath and an 11-foot garage.
