01 What makes it unique

The 2670 is where the Model Z line starts, and the plan that opens Brinkley’s mid-size luxury to the broadest range of trucks. At about 10,691 pounds dry it is the lightest coach in the line, yet it carries the full Brinkley build: the monotube triple-powder-coated chassis, 7,000-pound tandem axles on 8,000-pound leaf springs, a CURT Touring Coil suspension with ABS, a Helux king pin and the fully enclosed, heated underbelly. The layout is rear-living, with a 72-inch tri-fold sofa, heated wall-hugger theater recliners and a sliding dining table in a single flush-floor slide, mid-coach pass-through storage, a front queen bedroom and full bath, and a campside outdoor kitchen.

Its numbers make it the easiest Model Z to tow. RVUSA lists a published 13,995-pound GVWR against the 10,691-pound dry weight, which leaves a 3,304-pound payload and the lowest dry pin of the line at 1,891 pounds — figures a properly equipped half-ton or three-quarter-ton truck can carry. Two air conditioners (an 18,000-BTU rear Furrion Chill Cube and a 13,500-BTU front unit with a heat pump), a 16-cubic-foot 12-volt refrigerator, a 370-watt solar package with a 50-amp MPPT controller and the class-leading 79.5-inch bed and bath ceiling height all come standard.

At an MSRP of $103,322 it is the most accessible Model Z, and Brinkley dealers commonly sell well under the placard. For a couple who wants Brinkley’s residential interior and automotive exterior in the shortest, lightest, easiest-towing package — with a real rear living room and an outside kitchen — the 2670 is the line’s natural entry.

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).

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).

03 The Model Z floorplan family

The Brinkley Model Z is a mid-size luxury fifth wheel and one of the most talked-about new entrants in the segment. The line runs to twelve floorplans for 2026; the eight highest-demand layouts are profiled here in full, and the remaining four are catalogued on the line hub. The 2670 on this page is highlighted; each other profiled plan links to its own page.

The Brinkley Model Z is a mid-size luxury fifth wheel built by Brinkley RV, an independent manufacturer founded by RV-industry veterans. The full line runs to twelve floorplans for 2026; eight are profiled here and four more are catalogued above. Every plan rides on the same monotube triple-powder-coated chassis with 7,000-pound tandem axles on 8,000-pound leaf springs, a CURT Touring Coil suspension with ABS and a Helux king pin, and a fully enclosed, heated underbelly, and ships with a 370-watt roof solar package (740-watt ready) with a 50-amp MPPT controller, a 16-cubic-foot 12-volt refrigerator, brass plumbing fittings and a tankless on-demand water heater as standard — with a class-leading 79.5-inch bed and bath ceiling height. Body specifications (lengths, heights, payload, tanks, sleeping, slides and awnings) are RVUSA-verified against the 2026 structured spec records, each page matched to its RVUSA floorplan record by code and title; dry weight, GVWR, payload and pin weight are published per plan, and each plan's dry weight plus payload equals its GVWR exactly. Real loaded pin weights run higher — always weigh the loaded coach and confirm against your truck's payload and rear-axle ratings.

04 Notes on this floorplan

Lightest in the line

At about 10,691 lb dry it is the most tow-friendly Model Z — the widest truck compatibility in the line, down to a well-rated half-ton.

Lowest pin weight

An 1,891-lb dry pin — the lowest of any Model Z — leaves the most margin against a light truck’s payload and rear-axle rating.

Full Brinkley build at entry price

The same monotube chassis, Helux king pin, brass plumbing and heated underbelly as the big plans, at the line’s lowest MSRP.

Rear living + outside kitchen

A rear lounge with a 72-inch tri-fold sofa and theater recliners plus a campside outdoor kitchen — a couples’ plan in under 30 feet.

05 How it compares

↑ Step up
Brinkley Model Z 2680

The same 30-foot shell with a dedicated rear desk/office instead of the rear lounge — the remote-work couples’ plan.

↔ Cross-shop

Grand Design’s mid fifth wheel — the established mid-size-luxury cross-shop against the Model Z line.

↑ Full-size
Grand Design Solitude

The full-size luxury step up — a 101-inch widebody coach at a much higher weight, pin and price if you tow with a one-ton.

06 Loading it for a trip

A full 75-gallon fresh tank is about 626 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.2), 19% of the 2670’s 3,304 lb cargo capacity, leaving 2,678 lb (383 lb per rated berth). Across 11 Model Z floorplans the water share runs 17% to 32%, and 8 give up more than this one. Nearest on that share: Model Z 3515 at 18% and Model Z 3100 at 19%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.120 S10.4.3).

11 NHTSA safety record

NHTSA holds 8 recall campaigns and 5 owner complaints against the Model Z line. They are counted separately: a recall is a confirmed defect with a remedy, a complaint one owner’s unverified account.

Too few reports to show a pattern. 5 complaints have been filed on this line — not enough to say what fails most often. They cover electrical system, service brakes, service brakes, electric, trailer hitches and wheels.

Recall coverage here is not complete, and complaints are owners’ unverified reports (how this record is built). Check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy. Full tables are on the Model Z line page.
