Tom in Utah -

We have a 278RKS '08 Cougar 5th and have had nothing but enjoyable experiences with it. It was purchased new and since then, we have had only very minor issues with it - nothing that required an RV tech to repair or replace.
The rear kitchen, while not to everyone's liking, is one of the features we like best. Good counter space, lots of light coming in through the rear and side windows, and sufficient and handy storage space for all the kitchen "stuff".

Bedroom height would be ok for you I think - just don't stand on the bed. Not sure about standing up in the space beside the bed - might be a little tight near the foot/side of the bed. We can both stand up at the foot of the bed, in front of the bathroom sink, in the shower and at the the foot of the bed. I'm 5'10" (but shrinking) - my wife's shorter (and she's shrinking too).

If you would like anything more specific or to ask questions, you can always send me a Private Message for more information and impressions.

And welcome, BTW, to our forum!
