I recently retired and just traded in our 2020 Jayco 212QBW for a 2021 Cougar 24SABWE. My wife and I are both recently retired and looking forward to spending more time exploring.

I'm finding there is a lot to learn about RVing but that's part of the fun!

We were surprised our 2014 Toyota Tundra's payload was pretty low so upgraded to a 2016 GMC Sierra 2500 Diesel. Looking forward to seeing how towing with it compares to the Tundra.

Hello and welcome to the forum!

Congrats on the new Cougar, and the GMC Sierra TV!

Enjoy the learning experience, it is part of the fun.

Take care!

With the Duramax/Allison in the GMC along with the tow/haul function & exhaust brake I'd bet you'll wonder how the Tundra ever got a rv rolling or stopped.

Welcome from south Georgia. Congrat on the new Cougar and the Sierra. I can't wait for my new Sierra 3500 to come in.

Hello all, new 5th wheeler here,
I recently sold off my Class C gasser and purchased a 21 Keystone Cougar 24RDS 5th wheel.

Before my Class C I had a travel trailer and have decided to go back to trailers. Plus I like the mountains and my Class C had one heck of a time pulling a toad in the higher elevations. Looking forward to the new experience of a 5th wheel with the Duramax mule.

Welcome aboard! Wise choice on going to the 2016 diesel. You'll find that there is no comparison.
