Picked up my GeoPro 15TB camper this weekend. How it towed.

[Hank_]

After years of looking at campers and reading specs on campers, I finally decided on the GeoPro 15TB. I wanted a camper I could stand up in, has heat and a/c and a comfortable place to sleep. I also wanted something easy to tow. The 15TB checked all the boxes and weighed in at about 2600#. I drive a 2021 Jeep Gladiator Mojave. I have a 2” AEV spacer lift and 37” BFG AT’s on Mopar Beadlock wheels. All on stock suspension and gearing. I read plenty of articles saying gearing would be necessary but after pulley the camper 300 miles home I don’t know that I need to. I manually shifted the automatic transmission, mostly using 5th and 6th gears. At 65mph in 6th gear the Jeep ran at about 2600 rpm’s. I used an Anderson WD hitch and the Jeep rode great and about level on flat ground. I am looking forward to getting it out this summer. Gas mileage did suck though at about 9 mpg. For my Jeep and my camper, for where I live in Michigan, I think I will hold off on any re-gearing at this time.

I will try to update this once I can get it out camping.

Looks great!
We went with a Sun Lite 16bh, without the top bunk-got cabinets instead. Has a full bed at the front and a table drops to a twin for our daughter, also has a dry bathroom. 2480lbs.

Nice campers guys, still light but so much more the tear drop ones that kitchen is out side, Hank you must really be roughing it with the 32" TV, I feel so inferior with my 12volt 19". Hank those 37 might be your problem with gas, I'm towing a 19ERD Vista cruiser that is 24' long 4100GVWR, 3100 dry weight and tow with only a little bit of water in fresh tank, get around 12-13 mpg with it, have not done too much manual shifting as I am that guy pulling out from a stop light in sixth! Enjoy the campers guys, I've been loving mine, but a short 15 footer would be nice for some easy back country, I guess I can always ask the wife if I can get a second camper!.....Jack

I have a similarly sized camper-- also on 37s, but with 4.88s. Same mileage- 9.
