Got it!!!

Our Keystone Cougar High Country 321RES is exactly right for our family. Took lots of trial TT's, lists and saving $$, but we got it!

This is our 3rd camper in 10 years. Popup camper, 5th wheel and our new Northern Lite. We love this camper, NL is the Cadillac of TC and the quality and workmanship is top notch! Our Dodge 3500 DW 5.9 diesel is a dream to haul and drive and handles the 10'2" CDSE 3000 lbs great. We no longer have camper or truck lust, we'll keep this combo for a very long time.

This is our second Class A. I don't think this is our dream RV, but each otime it gets better. You learn what you don't want from the past and present ones in the future one.

I'm going on my 2nd but not my dream trailer forts was a jayco 26bh. Now were picking up a hideout 29bhs. But really want a small 5th toyhauler to take my bike and stuff Unfortunately ya not in the budget so we get by with good Tt. I can take my sisters family with us with plenty of room and that means more than anything.

I wouldn't say it's our Dream RV, but we've yet to find any current floor plan we like better WITH a price we'd be willing to pay.

How many to find it? Only 1. We learned from many of you guys, and bought the 2nd (or maybe the 3rd) camper first!

It did take 2 TVs, though - we knew we were pushing it with the 1/2 ton truck...that only lasted a few months before we went shopping for a 2500.

I bought my RV in the fall of 2004 and have not looked back since! In fact, when I start fantasizing about RV's or when I am out "looking", I always come back to my little Layton. I truthfully have no desire for anything else, especially when I try to equip it the same.

Now, would I turn down a 28' Airstream Serenity, nope, but I would still keep my little Layton for hunting and mountain trips.

I now have the one I have always wanted but it took me 4 trailers to find out what I liked/Disliked about trailers before I did. The only things (a small list) I am missing on my rig that I would like can be added as accessories. I didn't compromise. Anyone else finally have the one they want?


We were limited by weight, length and the need for a bed at each end. We love our floor plan but really are not happy with the interior dead colors which I cover with more colorful throws, and dark tinted cheap slide windows.
