I also live in Alaska and have a 2013 Cougar 29RBKWE that I purchased in Anchorage last year. There have been no issues and I love it. It has been to Homer, Denali, and on the Kenai.
When I purchased I went back and forth about saving a few thousand and buying it in the lower 48 and towing it. By the time gas, time, wear and tear added in I just decided to purchase up here.
I drove the Alcan last summer and it was brutal on a Uhaul trailer. I could not imagine what it would do to a new travel trailer. Even though I paid extra, as I said before there have been no issues with this trailer.
Good Luck in your decision
