1. Keystone Cougar is one of the brands nicest fifth wheels and will hold its value better than most. FALSE (and I own a Cougar)
2. Buying new alleviates major headaches over owning a fifth wheel. FALSE (all new RVs have some issues; and some have many)
3. They will be fine fitting into forest service and nps campgrounds with a 35' rig (they will spend most of their time in the Eastern Sierra Nevada). MAYBE (some CGs have length limitations)
4. If they do buy used they should go thru a dealer since they have the best inventory (contradicted by the guys crappy inventory conveniently placed next to the new rigs) FALSE (the dealer just wants them to buy something off his lot. Look at eBay, Craigslist, and other sites that list used RVs)
