The really small trailers like the TEAR DROP is only for sleeping inside. Most everything else is outside maybe with a TENT covering most of the area. I like that kind of camping but it may not be your liking. My neighbors have the A-FRAME and for two people it is great. Very easy to setup etc...
I would really try to fit something in with hard sides in the 22-24 foot range.
The older JEEPS were not designed to tow anything at all. Perhaps the newer ones are better at it... Back in the day our best camping years was pulling a small utility trailer behind our OFF-ROAD JEEPS and setting up the biggest baddest three room TENT next to wooded creek bed you could think of haha. The JEEP would take us all over the AZ and NM High Country and we most often went with groups of other JEEP guys and gals...

My off-road POPUP camper here weighs in around 4200 lbs loaded down and I pull it with my 2010 F150 truck. The truck doesn't know the POPUP is behind it and it gets great 19-22 MPG gallon on the open roads... Can drive from Northern Neck VA where we live to the Smoky Mtns at Gatlingburg TN on one tank of gas... Can't beat that with a stick...
This is the way we look when camping off the power grid campsites...
We enjoy this stuff bigtime but being in a full timer situation I might like to have some more walking around space inside the trailer and maybe some hard sides...
