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!

Keystone Cougar #1 in Retail Sales

April 18th, 2009 by Todd | Posted in Cougar, Fifth Wheels, General RVs, Keystone, Travel Trailers | No Comments »

Keystone’s Cougar brand was recently awarded the number one spot in retail sales for laminated travel trailers and fifth wheels, according to Statistical Surveys, Inc., Grand Rapids, Michigan. In addition to the number one ranking, Cougar travel trailers and fifth wheels also experienced 2008 market share growth in excess of 20%, outpacing all other brands nationally in total sales.

Cougar General Manager Chris Hermon credited great product and great dealers for the brand’s success. Says Hermon, “Every person in our Cougar organization and especially our product development team is committed to being the very best at their particular area of expertise. We all understand we have to work very hard to keep dominating and leading the way. As a group we are all on the same page. This award shows that we have a real pulse on what customers want.”

Among the product innovations that keep Cougar on top is a “never before” seen side-aisle bath fifth wheel floorplan with a huge linen closet slideout in the bathroom. Five additional new Cougar models have also been introduced along with debut of the customer-friendly iPod-sized Cougar Remote that controls the operation of slide out rooms, landing gear, as well as docking lights.

“We understand we need to continue to hit the sweet spot between great looks and features and a great price,” says Cougar Product Manager Jeff Runels. “Dealers and customers continue to look at Cougar as an exceptional travel trailer and fifth wheel brand. This environment continues to draw more people our way.”

Adds Hermon, we understand that exciting product keeps salespeople and dealers excited. We continue to be very committed to being that type of brand for our dealers.
