Towing 20' camper with Jeep Liberty
New to RVing and just wondering if anyone pulls with a Liberty. We're picking up a Rockwood Geo Pro G15tb in Ohio. We live in Texas. Dry weight on trailer is 2445 lbs. I could use some tips. Thanks!

Is there a yellow sticker on the door frame that lists the cargo capacity? Also you might need to check the owners manual for the actual towing specification. You might have already posted it, but what year is the Jeep. Also what's the trim package?
Max curb weight for the Liberty is 4290 so they have at least 1,310 payload with is probably plenty if you aren't putting a family of near-adults in the Liberty. I'd be much more worried about the short wheelbase (104"), a 20' trailer isn't massive but between the trailer weighing as much as the tow and the short wheelbase it probably won't be a fun experience.
It's like when I tried using the minivan to tow my trailer, I was within GVWR, gcwr, tow rating, etc and the minivan had a long wheelbase and big brakes, but it still was so sucky experience that I knew driving the trailer home I was buying a truck.
