Notice where all of your storage is. Way in front of the FW axles. Be aware the 17% pin weight ratio will increase once you load it. Again, I'm singing payload.
Your Cougar is 1300 lbs lighter than my Durango but the dry pin weight is the same. That could be due to my second slide behind the axles.
I pack light and take only what we will need for the trip. I refuse to have anyone in the back seats other than my 85lb mother-in-law while towing.

BTW, isn't it illegal to have people in the trailer while you're moving? To date I have never seen a 5th wheel trailer detached from its TV and upside down in a ditch alongside the highway...but have seen too many TT that way to ever put people in a trailer going down the highway.
