1st 5th wheel.

Just brought home a new 2015 Cougar X-lite 28SGS. Our previous rig was a 26' Class C. So far we love it. The 4 point auto level is pretty slick. I am a bit nose high in the photo and plan to load her then adjust the hitch and/or pin box height. I can't believe how smooth it was towing. My Ram 2500 CTD had no idea it was back there. Only took 5 times to back it into my storage spot. Haha...more practice needed.

Awesome looking rig. I am going to look at a Cougar X-Lite tomorrow. So the big question, any regrets with this brand?

Not all. Few small issues that the dealer fixed at PDI. Love the auto level. Tows like a dream. We looked at so many and we feel like we picked the best one for our needs.
