The 2025 Brinkley Model G 3970 Is a Toy Hauler Packed With Awesome Surprises and Luxury

Brinkley RV was only founded in 2022, but the five founding members boast decades of collective experience in RVs, which they combine with the desire to offer a product that's instantly recognizable for its craftsmanship and design. Brinkley RVs are just that, whether they're travel trailers, fifth-wheelers, or toy haulers – but they're also premium products built with direct feedback from the community.

The new Model G 3970 is a perfect example of that. It's the latest addition to the Model G series of fifth-wheel toy haulers that debuted in 2023, and was formally introduced earlier this fall as a 2025 model-year. The Model G 3970 is a new iteration of the 3950 layout but it's bigger, more comfortable, and somehow even fancier.

Brinkley has developed its toy haulers on the idea that most people buy toy haulers without actually planning to haul any toys in it, but rather as a live-in RV. The Model G series is offered in a handful of layouts, with premium residential features and finishes, and what Brinkley describes as unmatched attention in terms of toy hauling capabilities.

The Model G 3970 adds even more residential capabilities, thanks to a full bathroom now present in the garage. Brinkley RV describes this new model as a sum of all the good things about predecessor 3950, but better because it's been designed with feedback from the community after spending more than a year in the R&D and testing phase.

The G 3970 is 45.5 feet long (13.8 meters) and rides on three heavy-duty axles. Maximum weight is 22,500 lbs (10,206 kg), including 150 gallons (566 liters) of fresh water, 156 gallons (590 liters) of gray, 85 gallons (322 liters) of black, and 60 gallons (227 liters) for fuel. The shell is automotive grade in finishes and design, with painted fiberglass that gives it that very, instantly recognizable Brinkley look.

The G 3970 is as beautiful as its counterparts and every inch as functional. As shown in the video tour available at the bottom of the page, it can work as a toy hauler, as a live-in mobile home of the fanciest kind, or a combination of both.

The garage at the rear is 14 feet (4.2 meters) long, with a multitude of railings and hooks that make it perfect for a pair of dirt bikes, a golf cart, ATVs, or any other type of adventure gear. As residential space, it's perfect as a kids' room, offering no less than six berths: two on the facing benches that join into a bed, two on the adjustable bunk over it, and two more in the loft on the opposite side.

The novelty here is that Brinkley fits in a full, absolutely gorgeous bathroom with home-like finishes. You get a walk-in shower, a sink with a storage-integrating vanity, and a foot-flush porcelain toilet. Whether this space is used for living or toy hauling, it can live independently from the main section of the "home."

Speaking of the main part of the G 3950, it's borrowed from its predecessor, with the difference that the living room can now be specced with either the standard L-shaped couch or a new U-shaped one with four different recliners.

The kitchen is full size and packed with Brinkley staples like drop-down under-cabinet storage spaces with automatic LED lighting, a kitchen island with an extendable cutting board located right over the twin garbage cans, four-burner gas range, XL induction microwave oven, farm-style sink, and quality furniture throughout.

Next to the spacious lounge that also integrates a large-screen smart TV and a fireplace, you get what Brinkley calls their Dinesk, a modular piece you can arrange whichever way you want to suit your needs, either as a dinette or a desk.

The main bathroom is even bigger and better equipped in terms of storage, while the main bedroom at the end is a solid example of how Brinkley designs these units with permanent residence in mind, including all the basic features and comforts, as well as a surprising amount of storage throughout.

Features also include a 12V outdoor fridge with a drawer for your beer or soda, three massive awnings, three slide-outs, sensor motion LED lights at exterior connection ports and under the furniture, a huge 3-way pass-through storage with slide trays on the outside, and what Brinkley calls 101+ "intelligent features developed and tested in the real world."

Ultimately, that's the biggest advantage the G 3970 and its Model G siblings have over other toy haulers, according to Brinkley: the fact that they're designed to address real needs of real customers, and built over time with no expense spared in terms of costs, quality, or functionality.

All these big and perhaps convincing words must have you thinking a toy hauler like this one can't possibly be even close to what you'd deem "affordable." You're right. Orders for the Brinkley Model G 3970 are now open even though it's not yet out at dealers, and MRSP is over $210,000, depending on finishes and options.
