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...

Some people tow Scamps and Casitas with 1/2 ton pickups and report 14 to 15 mpg while towing. A Hi-Lo or Trailmanor should be that or a tad better.

With my V6 Highlander I got 14 mpg towing a molded fiberglass Burro 17',
11-12 mpg towing a 7' wide KZ Escape 14RB, and now it's about
17 mpg with the Aliner.
