Seeking advice on Cougar Lite (1/2 Ton)
While I don't own a 1/2 Ton truck, I am looking for a 5th wheel on the smaller, lighter side for long weekend and occasionally longer trips. It's mostly just my wife, myself and our golden retriever ...

Got my Jayco HT 26.5 RLS, big rear window and look straight at the television in 2012 for about $26,000, quite a ways below MSRP. Has a bunch of room with a 2-year warranty. I would guess a person could find that type of FW for less than $30,000, even new, right now. I'm not saying it's better than the Cougar, but it does fit your thoughts. GVW, whatever, of 9,950 although we have never put over 2,600 pounds of stuff in it as the fry weight sticker stated 7,272 pounds from the factory with battery and propane tanks.
It's interesting that you posted with this trailer. The Cougar is out of the running now but I'm looking at a 2013 Jayco HT 26.5RLS later today. How do you like yours? Are the holding tanks big enough. Do you ever dry camp? Is 48gal large enough for the fresh water? The other tanks look like they would handle about a week (65 gray and 32.5 black). Anything else I should look for?
