Hello, new to Keystone, 5th wheels and eager to learn
Hello from Kansas! We recently purchased 2020 Keystone Cougar 368mbi, not new to camping or RV's, new to Keystone brand, 5th wheel (coming from bumper pulls). Our kids are now grown and we're looking forward to camping with our adult kids and grandkids.

Welcome to the forum 
Congrats on your upgrade. Lots of good information and loads of great people here. What’s your tow vehicle?

Good deal. You may want to create a signature so anytime you post a question, forum members won’t have to ask. BTW you’re going to live the way a fiver tows after having bumper pull.

Hi and welcome!
I think you will find towing that Cougar will be second nature after some experience.
Take care and enjoy!

You will be able to "park" that 5th wheel much easier than a bumper pull.
