Keystone Cougar fifth wheel exterior

Keystone says: "For seven straight years RV buyers have made Cougar #1 in its class. The reason? Cougar offers you more features, more innovative floorplans and higher quality, all at a popular price." 

Construction features for the high-quality Cougar include 5-sided aluminum construction, the one-piece EPDM rubber roof membrane with 12 year warranty, gel-coated filon fiberglass sidewalls and a 3" welded aluminum floor.

The picture below shows the quality of the interiors of Cougar fifth wheels. This particular picture is the den of the 320SRX and the 316QBS models. The floorplans for both of these models are shown lower on this page.

We show another beautiful Cougar interior below. This is the 276 RLS in Bayleaf with hardwood cabinets, day/night shades, speckled carpet and large windows. Cougar says that the 276RLS is one of their most popular models. Once again, there is a floorplan for this model lower on this page.

FLOORPLANS

The first floorplan we show is the 316QBS.  This model has a length of 34'2" with a shipping weight of 9047 lbs and a carrying capacity of 2463 lbs.  This is a beautiful layout with the den arrangement shown in the picture above.  This is a really well thought out plan with a large bedroom at one end and multi bunk arrangement at the other:

Next we show the 320SRX (not to the same scale).  This model has a length of 35'3" with a shipping weight of 9117 lbs and a carrying capacity of 2963 lbs.  Keystone says: "There is a Cougar floorplan to fit every need" and this particular model meets the need of those who want a toy-hauler garage. This also has the den arrangement and is a really nice use of all the available space.

Next we show the 276RLS - one of the most popular models - just 28'9" long, but beautiful and spacious for those who don't need bunks or a toy garage. (A shipping weight of just 7220 lbs and a big carrying capacity of 2960 lbs.).

Finally we show the 293SAB floorplan with the oversized bunks and trundle bed arrangement.  This end of the RV also has it's own bathroom and TV etc as part of the layout.  Perfect for families.  (Length 33'5", shipping weight 8786 lbs and carrying capacity 2784 lbs)

Fern SlotmanWe are using our 32' Cougar 5th wheel for the first time this week. Bought it used. We like it so far, but the fan is rather noisy when the air conditioning is on. May have to have that looked into. We will see how everything goes as time goes on.
T.R.V. I have a 2009 cougar SAB 293 and the heat system doesn`t heat the camper properly. It is around 90 degrees in the back bedroom and about 50 degrees in the front bedroom.the front two vents blow a very small amount of air.I was under the impression the heating system would heat the camper close to the same temperature in the front as well as in the back.I was also told by the dealer the heater is located towards the rear so it would be the warmest area.So I assume the furnace duct work is for looks.
MKWe have the 293 SAB and love the separation with the back and front. However, Keystone has a problem with the 2008 first run models. Well, Ours had lots of problems, most fixed by now. Before you buy one, TURN ON THE HEATER, make sure there is enough air getting to the front of the RV. Our RV is unusable in the winter due to this problem DO NOT SIGN ANY CONTRACTS, until you have done this. Keystone says they will be able to fix it, but they can't. Our 5th wheel has been service since November 13th 2008, today is February 6, 2009. Room tempature measurements after 8 hours of nonstop furnace running: Bask bedroom 91 degrees, front bedroom 54 degrees. The themostat is in the front of the RV so it never cycled off in over 8 of being set at 70 degrees.
Ken HLike Keystone. Bought a 2008 cougar 5th wheel 276. Excellent quality in the RV and have had only a couple of minor problems. I guess a lot depends on the dealer it was purchased from.
RogerLike Keystone. I have a Cougar 278 2001 and I have about 35,000 miles without problems. The secret: I make an annual automotive maintenance. It's the same thing for all fifth wheels. Bye
TimNo problems so far! Great floor plan with lots of room. Interior quality is good...a few minor issues but nothing a little adjusting would'nt cure. I feel most folks expect a little more than they should with an RV interior...it's not a stick built house! Dealer has been great!!! McDonough RV Center Based upon your experiences, would you buy one of this manufacturer's RVs again?: Yes. Rating: 5/5.
NormaWe have a 2006 Keystone Cougar 5th wheel which we bought new. We traded in 5th wheel Hitchhiker by NuWa. We never had any problems with the Hitchhiker. We traded it in order to downsize. We bought a 25 ft. Cougar. Higher end 5th wheel mfgrs no longer make a 26 foot 5th wheel, but have changed to building 30 ft. and above. We ordered a KVH satellite dish from the dealer which he intalled. Took 3 trips back to the dealer before they provided us with a working dish. Seems their RV "specialist" doesn't know beans about wiring a dish. We also had them install a black holding tank washer so the black tank gauge would show a true reading. The dealer installed it. Unfortunately the factory had labeled the grey water holding tank black and vice versa. So we wound up with washers on both tanks. What a hoot!!!
brian b293 floor plan very attractive for my young family, but i have not seen any else with similar floor plan. Separate room for little ones to sleep is a must.
