First 5th Wheel
LOML and I purchased our first 5th wheel this past February, a Keystone Cougar 311RES. I'll be pulling it with a 2017 Ram 2500 turbo diesel. We've had a couple of TT in the past and now looking forward the the spacious design of the 5'r.

Thanks for all the welcome replies.
Due to wife's health issues, haven't been able to take it out since the inaugural trip the end of February. Can hardly wait till next weekend when we will make a short trip to Waco.

Best of luck on the trip. It is a great looking RV (went and looked at pics from a seller site). Not sure why anybody would want to go to Waco but hey, to each his own. Lots of fast food restaurants along IH35 though hehe

George,
Wife's a big fan of Fixer Upper and wants to see Joanna's shop plus there is the Waco Mammoth National Monument.
I'll post a picture of my rig in my sig line next week when I hook up next weekend.
