Intrusive ENTERTAINMENT CENTERS

I have been researching 5th wheel RV's. It appears ALL manufacturers are putting large, intrusive TV Entertainment Centers in every model.

My current RV is a 2011 Keystone Cougar 318SAB. It has a swing out TV which allows for a window and desk area.

Does anyone know of a new 5th wheel RV without the massive Entertainment Center?

Attached Photo is my 2011 Keystone Cougar 318SAB. In my opinion, this setup is IDEAL.

i appreciate your comments.
Some of us RVers don't need the giant TV area.
The fireplace thingy can, I guess, take the chill off, but I have an oil-filled radiator I keep in my RV. It serves the purpose and stores easily under that desk area.

I've been a member of the Keystone forum since 2010. I love my 2011 Cougar.

Regards,
Phil

I can't speak as to what is available now, but back in 2010 when we ordered our Mobile Suites by DRV, a number of the floor plans included an entertainment center where the TV receded down into the cabinet behind the electric fireplace. Components for the entertainment system were in a compartment over the cabinet where the TV itself was.


In this picture, in addition to the TV and entertainment components being in that area, that angled part to the right is a desk where my computer sits.

That is a really nice setup.
I haven't seen anything like that in my recent search.
Thanks for you photo.

Unfortunately you are asking for less when more and louder voices are asking for bigger and more.
