    Are Keystone Cougars the same quality they use to be?

    Hi there, I did a quick search but was unable to find an exact answer. I am looking at purchasing another Keystone Cougar to full time in and am wondering if they are still the same quality? I lived in a 2007 Cougar for 3 years with no issues aside from normal wear and tear. I was very happy...
