Keystone RV Company Max-Turn Fifth Wheel Technology

May 20th, 2011 by josh | Posted in Cougar, High Country, Keystone, Montana, Mountaineer, Product News, X-Lite | No Comments »

With the introduction of Keystone RV Company’s Max-Turn Technology, there is no more worrying about backing up or turning with your fifth wheel.  Increased turning radius and ease of maneuverability is just another great innovation from North America’s leading fifth wheel manufacturer.  In a nutshell, Max-Turn Technology means that turning in the tightest of campsites with your Cougar, X-Lite, or Cougar High Country fifth wheel has never been easier (or less stressful!),

Key Max-Turn Technology Benefits:

  • Integrated Frame and Front Cap Design
  • 79 Degree Truck-to-Fifth Wheel Turning Radius
  • 1 Piece Front Rail Design for Maximized Strength and Maneuverability

Along with Cougar fifth wheels, Max-Turn Technology is also available in Montana, Mountaineer, Montana High Country and other popular Keystone RV brands.  Watch an informative Max-Turn Technology video on the Pete’s RV YouTube Channel!

Pete’s RV Poised for Another Banner Year with Keystone RV

December 20th, 2010 by Phil | Posted in Cougar, General RVs, High Country, Keystone, Montana, Mountaineer, News, Outback, Passport, Pete's News, Product News, Springdale, Sprinter, Summerland, Sydney, Trade Shows, X-Lite | No Comments »


After an incredible 2010, Pete’s RV Center is optimistic that 2011 is going to be another great year for RV sales.  Their confidence was bolstered after previewing Keystone RV Company’s 2011 offerings at the National RV Trade Show in Louisville, KY.

An exclusive Keystone RV dealer, Sales Manager Todd McGinnis spoke highly of the new changes, floorplans and innovations across all brands:  “What continues to impress me about Keystone RV is they take great care when launching a new floorplan, or making changes to an existing model.  I never get the feeling they are just hastily doing something to keep up with the competition.”

To prepare for 2011, McGinnis orders inventory based on previous year’s popular sellers as well as new floorplans he feels will do well with consumers.  With so many new and exciting functional floorplans being launched this year, Pete’s RV is going to have an expanded inventory in 2011.  McGinnis confirmed, “Across the board, I saw several new floorplans that are going to be a hit with families and couples alike.  Therefore, it is a no brainer for Pete’s RV to make them available to our customers in 2011.”

Here’s some brief notes on what was showcased for 2011 by Keystone RV Company in Louisville:

Montana

New Fifth Wheel Floorplans: 3100RL, 3700RL, 313RE High Country, 290RLT Mountaineer

Notes: Crowned roof trusses and vaulted ceilings in Big Sky and Montana, new graphics on Mountaineer, Beauflor vinyl flooring in all coaches, and many subtle, but nicely done aesthetic changes.




Cougar

New Fifth Wheel Floorplans: 297RKS, 323MKS, 328QBS, 246RLS High Country, 29RES X-Lite

New Travel Trailer Floorplans: 321RES High Country, 302RLS High Country, 298BHS High Country, 28FLV X-Lite, 29RBK X-Lite, 32SAB X-Lite

Notes: Big changes and refined line up for Cougar, Cougar High Country and X-Lite. All will include fifth wheels and travel trailers. The most obvious innovations are the dyed cap and graphics on Cougar and very slick front caps on the travel trailers. Interior cabinetry and decor never looked better and some new floorplans to boot.

Outback

New Travel Trailer Floorplans: 298RE, 277RL, 279RB

New Sydney Fifth Wheel Floorplans: 322FRL

Notes: For starters, fifth wheels will now be distinguished solely with the Sydney name. We like this…much cleaner. That said, Sydney fifth wheels have a new graphics package. Outback’s biggest splash is the new front cap. Very nice! Both Outback and Sydney are offering 10th Anniversary feature and graphics packages. Oh yeah…be sure to check out the new vaulted ceilings on the Outbacks. Creates additional headroom and overall added good looks to an already stellar interior!

Sprinter

New Travel Trailer Floorplans: 255RKS, 271FL, 277RLS, 308BHS, 323BHS

Notes: Sprinter is manufacturing several new innovative floorplans for their travel trailers and Copper Canyon fifth wheels. These intelligent designs create spaciousness without compromise. Feature upgrades include Corian kitchen countertops, rich, dark cabinetry, Beauflor vinyl flooring, floor lighting and new graphics. To keep the brand straightforward, the Sprinter Select extension is discontinued–which make perfect sense to us.

Passport

New Travel Trailer Floorplans: 238ML

Notes: Most obvious change for Passport in 2011 is the graphics package. It has a nice pop to it and sure to impress in the campground or behind the tow vehicle. For early 2011, there is a Limited Edition package on Passport Ultra Light models (not Express). In addition to a very sporty graphics package, Limited Edition Passport includes an impressive list of standard features.

Springdale

New Travel Trailer Floorplans: 247FWRL, 292RL, 293RK, 295R, 299FK

Notes: Be it storage, countertop or room to move, Springdale’s emphasis is adding more space in their trailers.  Their new floorplans also offer more creature comforts including larger televisons, u-shaped dinettes and extra deep slideout rooms.



Raptor

New Toy Hauler Floorplans: 297SE, 4014LEV, 410LEV

Notes: The barn door porch system is an ingenious way to utilize otherwise little used real estate on a toy hauler ramp. What a tremendous space for outdoor entertainment! Other upgrades to note is further emphasis on making Raptor–and especially Raptor Velocity–the most luxurious toy haulers on the planet!

November 23rd, 2010 by Phil | Posted in Cougar, Keystone, News, Pete's News, Product News, RV Sales, Travel Trailers, X-Lite | No Comments »


Cougar RV District Sales Manager Jeff Kloska paid a visit to Pete’s RV Center and provided an in depth presentation on what’s in store for the Cougar product line in 2011.

As the reigning number one selling mid profile-fifth wheel in North America for nine years straight, and travel trailers being the number one fiberglass product in the United States, why change, right?

Well, Jeff assured us that Cougar, and their parent Keystone RV Company, is always striving to bring improvements and new innovations to their fifth wheels and travel trailers.

Here’s a rundown of what’s new in the 2011 Cougar line:

  • Solid Hardwood Slide Fascia (No Press Board or Composite!)
  • Real Hardwood Cherry Cabinets (Not Painted!)
  • Sharp New Graphics and Dyed Front Cap on Fifth Wheels
  • 5 New Floorplans!

Along with all of these new and exciting innovations, Jeff reinforced many of the existing features that make Cougar RV head and shoulders above the competition:

  • Cougar Hitch Vision
  • Separate Front Bulkhead Storage
  • ‘T’ Track (Not Glued!) Bulb Seal and ‘C’ Channel on Slide Rooms
  • 6 Gallon Electric/Gas DSI Water Heater with 16.2 Gallon/Hr. Recovery
  • Full Walk-On Roof (Slide Rooms Too!)
  • Day/Night Shades with Lambrequin Legs on Windows
  • Panoramic Slide Room Window AND Side Windows Open for Ventilation
  • 60/40 Deep Kitchen Sink with High Rise Faucet

  • Crack and Shrink-Resistant Rubberized Vinyl Flooring

If all of this isn’t enough to to “Wow” you over, Pete’s RV is outfitting all 2011 Cougar Fifth Wheels with 15,000 BTU Air Conditioners (13,500 BTU is standard) and Dual Pane Windows on selected models.

As the year progresses Pete’s RV will continue to highlight Cougar RV features in more detail.  In the meantime, we welcome you to contact us with further inquiries on Cougar, Cougar High Country, and Cougar X-Lite Travel Trailers and Fifth Wheels.
