01 What makes it unique

Brinkley lists the 2027 Model Gx 3500x at 15,600 lb dry, a GVWR of 19,250 lb and a pin weight of 3,200 lb. Brinkley prints no cargo carrying capacity for it, so none is given here; the federal label inside the trailer carries one.

It is 40' 2" long and 13' 4" high. Brinkley prints its tanks as 150 gal fresh, 104 gal grey, 104 gal black.

Among the 2 Model Gx floorplans Brinkley’s Model Gx floorplan flyers (listed under model year 2027 in Brinkley’s own document library; the flyers print no year) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 1 from the lightest, in a range from 15,600 lb (Model Gx 3500x) to 16,950 lb (Model Gx 4000x). Every figure in that comparison is Brinkley’s, for the same model year.

Every number on this page was read on 6 Nov 2026 from Brinkley’s Model Gx floorplan flyers (listed under model year 2027 in Brinkley’s own document library; the flyers print no year); model year 2027 comes from where the maker files it on its own site, not from the document’s text.

How the 3500x differs from the other Model Gx floorplan. How these ranks are worked out.

Next to the 4000x, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the 3500x is 1,350 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 2,750 lb lower, has a pin weight 300 lb lighter and is 5 ft shorter; the two publish the same exterior height, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

Towing it

Tow rating needed19,250 lb
Published pin weight3,200 lb
Loaded pin weight, rule of thumb3,200–4,812 lb
In-bed fifth-wheel hitch rating needed19,250 lb towed / 4,812 lb pin
Payload check. Budget loaded, not dry: subtract the loaded range, every passenger and the bed and cab load from the payload on your tow vehicle’s door-pillar placard (49 CFR 571.110 S4.3).

Check your vehicle. Enter the ratings from your owner’s manual and the door-pillar placard.

Compares your figures with this page’s published GVWR (19,250 lb) and the upper loaded pin estimate (4,812 lb, a rule of thumb). Your vehicle’s placard and the trailer’s own weight label govern.

Loaded range: 15–25% of GVWR on the pin, a rule of thumb, not a measurement of this unit. No truck ratings or hitch classes (why; NHTSA, DOT HS 809 433). The range starts at the published figure, because loaded is never lighter than that.

04 Notes on this floorplan

What Brinkley does not publish for the Model Gx 3500x

Brinkley prints no cargo carrying capacity, tire size, interior height, sleeping capacity for this model, so none is given. Nothing is filled from a sibling model, a different model year or a dealer listing.

Read the label on the trailer

Federal rules put a load-carrying label inside every RV trailer: its unloaded weight with full propane, its cargo carrying capacity and its GVWR (49 CFR 571.110 and 571.120). Those figures come from the trailer itself and govern the towing decision.
