Small travel trailer

[wibornz]

Geo Pro FTB15
Tow it all over SoCal. We carry a lot of stuff and have had no issues. I would not recommend any bigger/ more weight. I am on 35s now, same gears.

One of the guys we camp with and travel with has your set up.

Hallo
Ich habe keine Probleme mit meinem JlR. Der Eriba Touring 542 hat ein zulässiges Gesamtgewicht von 3050 lbs.
Die Anhängelast für den 2-Türer in Europa beträgt 3307 lbs. Der 44 hat einen Aluminiumdeckel mit mehr Öl, keine Temperaturprobleme. Der Kraftstoffverbrauch auf der Strecke liegt zwischen 13/15 mpg bei etwa 60 mph mit dem 426 Hemi, Achse 4.10 und 35x12.5R17.

Grüße Andy

Meets family living specs and jeep specs when dry. Just keep most of the heavier stuff in the JL.

Mein Gott...you've a 426 stuffed into a JL? Details, bitte!
Have you also installed larger/stronger brake components, et cetera?
Just curious.

I've looked a bit at Scamp and Casita. Will probably try to rent one to try it out.

My Maternal Grandparents had a Scamp, and my neighbor across the street has a Casita, they both seemed very Happy with their respective trailers, but I have never had one, and at 6’0” tall, I think that I might find one a bit “Confining “

Accepting each for what they are, I haven’t heard anything Bad about either, kinda like accepting that a Wrangler ain’t got the best Road Manners, but that isn’t, what we bought them for

Could be just what you are looking for

Thanks for the insights!
The genetic legacy of my immigrant grandparents meant we were either tall Germans or short Swedes... so I should fit fine!

The Geo Pro has a pretty tall lid and a huge king bed. Nowhere to sit when the bed is made up, but pick your poison. Lol

I am 6'3" and can easily stand up straight in the E-Pro TB15. Also note the E-Pro, Geo Pro and Rockwell TB15 are all the same camper with just a different sticker package.

I took the king size bed out, added a queen size quality memory foam mattress, and had to seat cushions made and installed a swiveling table. like this

I never have to set up and take down the bed.

Moving the weight from the trailer to the Jeep solves nothing. It the CGVW that counts. Back off the max tow rating weight by 25%. Cargo and passenger weight also have to be taken into consideration, as well as grades and elevation. Your engine loses 3% of power output for every 1000’ of elevation. A Wrangler is not a family tow vehicle.

Do you want your jeep to last? Ihave a jlur w 3.6. I towed a 2k lb off road trailer w rtt around in summer months to go camping. Lots of hills, altitudes from 1200 to 9000ft. At 55k miles the rocker arms went bad. Covered under warranty, but i try to do all my towing with my truck now. Imo, Jeeps are not good for towing. Could be coincidental but i know of 2 others who had same issue and also towed small trailers.

Just my opinion on this after my experience.

100% agree........
