Curious as to why you list the 2010 Cougar 322QBS as "junk" ?
Among other things, the welds on the kingpin box failed as I towed it down the road when it was 3 weeks old, causing it to fall onto the bed of my truck at 65 mph. An examination of the welds showed rust inside them, meaning it was never bonded properly when welded. I am lucky it didn't totally detach and go into oncoming traffic that day. Oh, and should I mention that I was 800 miles from home in another Country, and it was Sunday? Nightmare. Keystone had to put us up in a hotel, hire a mobile welder to come to the campground to weld it enough so it could be towed, then I got to watch as my brand new $45,000 RV got ripped apart and rebuilt, ruining our family vacation.
Then there was the enclosed, small area where the converter/charger was mounted at the top of the stairs to the bunk room was not ventilated, so the cooling fan for the converter/charger just pumped it's own heat into the enclosed space, eventually cooking the converter, that of course failed just after warranty. I added vents and a new part and had no more issues. This is something any competent designer who cared even a little should have seen as an issue.
Also, constant uneven tire wear due to improperly aligned axles (had to get them realigned every year). The axles were barely rated for enough weight to handle the weight of the RV minus the pin weight, so they were at their limits and bent easily, again, under engineered for anything resembling durability
I'll spare you more details....I could go on and on.
