Differences between the Cougar and Puma models

[smlobx]

Hi-
I'm trying to figure out which truck camper to buy for our upcoming retirement adventures and the ATC Cougar and Puma models are on our short list but I am having trouble figuring out a couple of things based on their website so I thought I would ask here...

1. Are they basically the same unit ? It appears that the Cougar is 84" wide while the Puma is either 78 or 72".

2. If the Cougar is wider then why is the upper bed smaller (47"x 75" as opposed to 63" x 75" in the Puma).

3. Do either of these units offer a cassette toilet or something similar as an option? I didn't see it listed as an option.

Thanks! If anyone has one of these some pictures would be very helpful as I'm on the East Coast and they're aren't many around here.

Hi,
Thank you for pointing out our mistake on our website.
The actual bed size on a Cougar is 48" X 81 1/2" stock or 64" X 81 1/2" with the optional pull out.
The Puma 78 bed size is 48" X 75 1/2" stock or 64" X 75 1/2" with the pull out.
The Puma 72 has a bed size of 69 1/2" X 76"
We now have a call into our web guy to have this fixed. Marty

Thanks Marty. I really didn't expect a response from ATC!

So it sounds like the bed on the Puma 72 is a North/South arrangement while the others are East/West is that correct?

Also do you offer any cassette toilet option?

Thanks again!

I can answer the cassette question because we just got one made by ATC and cassette was not an option. But they do build a great product.

Try a PET toilet. They take less room and work well.
