New Model 33RES Cougar X-Lite

Just received info on a new model trailer from Keystone Cougar. The 33RES has 3 slides with pretty much all the storage and options I can think of. Was wondering if anyone has seen one of these

    We are looking at the same floor plan, but in the Denali 287RE, rather than the Cougar RES. The Denali has a king size bed that the Cougar does not and a much larger carrying capacity. Here is the link:

    Yes, wife and I looked over the Denali 287RE about a year ago. Very nice trailer..I pointed out the king size bed and she pointed out it's way to hard to make it up every day. There's no room on each side and trying to push down the sheets and blankets was a no no for her.. :)
    The Cougar has walk around room on each side of the queen bed.
    I prefer the new "arch ceilings" they are putting in new trailers. Makes it look a lot larger inside.

    Besides I couldn't find any dealer here in Michigan - Ohio or Indiana who would discount it 30% off MSRP. And I refuse to pay more than 70% of MSRP on new RV's.
    Happy trails,

    I can't fathom how you can have a 36 foot long trailer with three slides and still only weigh 9500 (GVWR). They must have installed an anti-gravity machine.


    My guess is because the carrying capacity is rated only for 1400 lbs. Once you add propane, options and some water that doesn't leave much room for gear, bikes, food, clothing etc.
