Re: 2017 cougar 326rds

We picked ours up last month. Only have one night in it so far, but have a 4 day weekend this weekend, looking forward to a few more nights in the trailer. So far, I have not found any problems, the living room area is very comfortable!!

Ours will be winterized and pretty much put away until spring... I will get to play with stuff on it throughout the winter!

Re: 2017 cougar 326rds

I don't know if there's much difference between the 2016–2017 but we sure love our 2016. We have owned it for about nine months now and I've had very little problems with it. All of the issues we have had have been taken care of under warranty.

We really do enjoy the living room area it is nice and big. Make sure to have your rig weighed and be careful how much stuff you put in the rear storage area, we got real close to being overweight with not that much in there.

Re: 2017 cougar 326rds

I can't imagine that there is much difference between the 16 and 17, probably none!! We just had a great three night trip with ours, such a comfortable trailer. Everything is working well, probably the only thing that I have noticed is some inconsistent airflow to different parts of the trailer with the heater. The kitchen area has great airflow, greatly reduced in the bedroom, and almost nonexistent in the living room. That being said, we were comfortable in the bedroom, and the fireplace keeps the living room very comfortable. So far, very happy with our decision to buy this trailer. Same observation on the weight that bomberchamp mentioned. Weighed ours all loaded up and I'm within 500 pounds of the GVWR of the trailer.

Re: 2017 cougar 326rds

i forgot to add that we did have a second air put on and have two 6 volt batteries. That reduced our carrying abilities a bit too.

Re: 2017 cougar 326rds

How good does your sound bar sound when you play music thru bluetooth? Mine does not have any bass at all, sounds awful...

Re: 2017 cougar 326rds

Ours didn't come with the sound bar. The speakers are ok, not great but not terrible. I might decide to upgrade them eventually. I haven't tried to connect on the bluetooth yet, will do that soon.

Re: 2017 cougar 326rds

If you do not have a sound bar... Where are the speakers located?

I have a new 2017 326 and have 3 nights in it. Only issue was the sat tv hook up did not work took it back and they put in a new hook up for the coax at the back of the unit and it is supposed to work. Haven't tried it yet but trust it does

Isn't the sat tv connection the same as cable tv? Which is located in the control area with water connections?

Yes it is but.... it would not work with my sat. So they added a new hook up back by where the tv is on the side of the unit
