Keystone Raptor 415 vs Brinkley Model G 3950
The difference that matters
Size and weight are similar: the Raptor 415 is 44.5 ft and 17,328 lb dry with a 3,785 lb pin, while the Model G 3950 is 45.4 ft and 18,900 lb with a 3,450 lb pin. The Raptor's 16 ft garage is 2 ft longer than the Brinkley's 14 ft flex space, and it carries 173 gal fresh against 150.
Equipment is where the Brinkley pulls away. It has 800 W of solar, a 200 Ah self-heating lithium bank, a FlexPower 5500 dual-fuel inverter generator and a 60 gal fuel station. The Raptor has a 5,500 W gas and propane generator with a 30 gal tank and only a solar prep port. The Brinkley also has a triple axle on 16-ply tires, a 3,000 lb rated ramp, 156 gal gray capacity and sleeps nine to the Raptor's seven.
The Raptor counters with six-point hydraulic leveling, MORryde collapsible steps and 105 cu ft of heated pass-through storage.
