What camper to tow with 1/2 ton and decent MPG

This might be impossible to find. But I'm wondering if there is a camper that is a designed to be more aerodynamic, lighter, something to make it more fuel efficient. I will be towing with a 2007 F15...

Towing a TT like the one you envision for your family does not get you good gas mileage. Towing anything reduces gas mileage. If concern for your MPG while towing is going to ruin the fun you will most certanily have, along with all the fine memories to be made, then you might consider shelving the idea of the lifestyle.

Simply put - it is what it is. You will spend more money on average purchasing/maintaining an RV than you will pay for gas towing one.

Good luck in your decesion.
