It’s a very cool trailer with all the right stuff at a very reasonable price. The Geo Pro is one of the best compact trailers for the price. You can find cheaper trailers this size but what you get for extra money is well worth it. The lower bunk flips up to give even more storage. This would be my first choice for a small trailer.
I’m a new subscriber who just discovered your channel and have been contemplating purchasing a travel trailer. This one is cool and I’m a fan of the features. Thanks for being so thorough in your reviews. It helps when your new to this to get so much good advice. Thanks again.
Went to our local RV dealer here in southern Indiana on a whim this Saturday and toured this exact model. I believe it had Goodyear tires and one optional package (maybe that oven was part of it). MSRP was $32k something and sale was $30k something. My only complaints were the main door latch was crazy stiff to open, wish sink was inset and included cover for prep, and the tanks were larger (I think 30gal fresh). We're in the market for a new house and don't want to spend $30k otherwise I do love this RV! May go to another dealer to see if we can look at and price a similar size Jay Flight.
This is probably the best layout for this size camper that would actually function for a family of 4. Nice to know something smaller & more affordable than a 40+’ fifth wheeler is possible!
I am pretty sure a 5000lbs tow capacity midsize suv will pull that trailer without any problems. Buying a 1/2 ton truck just for that is probably overkill.
We tow our e-pro 19BH (same as the Geo-Pro reviewed here) with a Honda Passport - it has a 5000lb capacity…and I will be honest, once you get some gear packed in the trailer, the Honda is at its safe towing limit. It tows great in the prairies (flat land!!) but if you’re in the mountains or any hilly country, you need a more robust tow vehicle. My wife and I will be getting a half-ton truck to make the towing more enjoyable. We love our trailer, but be aware that even at a dry weight most mid-size SUVs will be at their limit towing this unit safely.
Question on travel trailers that have solar all ready installed? Does the solar give you enough power to turn on the lights without batteries? I know Matt did that in a couple of his videos.
I am on the brink of purchasing the 2024 model to live out of while I attend grad school in Memphis. I currently drive a 2015 tacoma with a v6 tow package 6500lbs max. Do you think ill have issues with it?
I used to question your recommendations a little when I had my 1/2 ton. The dealers will even tell you it wont be an issue at all. I upgraded to a 1 ton dually and was amazed as the comfort difference when towing a long distance. Sure you can get away with less but the comfort extended past just towing but into the whole experience. First ditching gas gave me the option for aux fuel tanks. It also opened me up to using the commercial lanes at truck stops. The easy in and out makes towing much less work. I think it would be a great event if BTBRV teamed up with a manufacturer and a RV dealer. Take RVs right in the middle of that 1/2 to 3/4 or 3/4 to 1 ton and let real world drivers from the area come in. Better yet, let drivers bring their own rigs and bump them up a class. You could even get etrailer or a hitch manufacturer get involved and show what hitch setup makes their rig more comfortable. Real people giving their opinions might help drive those decisions.
Saw this in person and loved it. The quality was very nice and the layout was perfect but my wife wanted bigger. Looking back I still wish we would have gotten this instead.
You need to check out the Ember line. I’d like you to compare the ember 190MBH vs. No Bo 19.3. Which would you but. Both have a off grid unplugged max solar package.
It would have been nice if you showed all of the storage above the bed and dinette, as well as the A/C. I don’t know if it is ducted or not. With this being such a small RV, seeing all of the storage is important, and it would be nice to know if the A/C is ducted or not. Just a little constructive criticism. Otherwise, keep up the videos!!! You are the go to guy when it comes to these and we appreciate that!!!
Thank you. I was wondering if you could cover some campers that can be pulled by an SUV such as a 4Runner which has a tow capacity of 5000 lbs. I am specifically trying to find campers that are not popups due to having to camp in bear country.
Hubby and I absolutely LOVE your channel! Happy new year from Milton, ON, Canada. Just curious, do you think you could get two adult mountain bikes in and out of that cargo/play door? Would've been nice to see the bunk flipped up and to get a measurement of the storage area (too bad the door was locked). These are hard to find in my neck of the woods.
I like this layout but you need to check out ember RVs. The ember 170mbh is similar to this but you get so much more- true box steel frame, true independent suspension, certified 0-100 degree rating, and a true queen Murphy bed It does cost more but it dosnt have a splinter of wood in the structure to rot and to me it’s well worth it. Definitely go check out some ember RVs when u can

Love the price point. Is there an option for an awning on the service side? Looks like some sort of bracketry on the top. Also gotta love something being wired for something wireless! LOL🤣🤣🤣
I guess if you are in your twenties it’s ok but the east west beds aren’t comfortable for the person up against the wall. Remember you spend eight hours trying to sleep.
The diagram on the inside of the door showed A/C on the roof, but this unit does not appear to have A/C which probably explains the lower price. I wish a lot of RVs came with a place for more than just a couple of batteries. Is it ok for an electric tongue jack to operate off of lithium batteries? If so you could put two S0K marine grade batteries there at 206ah each which would give you 330 useable amp hours. I can't imagine the tongue jack drawing too much of a load. Unlike an engine starter.
Lose the bunkhouse. Turn the bed so no more crawling over each other. Put sink above toilet. WINNER!
I agree 💯 %
If you turn the bed even with the bunks gone you've added 3 or 4 feet in length so that's at least 3 to 4k in added price
Great product! Had mine for almost a year and i have been very pleased!

Awesome camper for the price. Plus it sleeps 5 which is also a plus!

16k tops for this. I hate hove the last two years has made everything like this double.
You should review Ember RV would make a tremendous direct comparison to the Geo Pro.

Was that a porcelain toilet?
Cool
Same layout as one of the smaller Kodiaks ...
No bumper for stinky slinky?
There was a tube under the frame about midway for the stinky slinky. Still seems like it should have a bumper for safety reasons.

20 feet on a single axle, i wonder how it drives.
I like the Jayco better.

Solid unit. I could see a single person full time in it. Possibly a couple.

Affordable???? Ha ha ha in 2022 nothing is affordable

Do the windows open for cross ventilation?

Why do RV guys absolutely abuse to use of the word "cool" in these videos? I just happen to notice this after combing through videos all day ;)
It's a cool word. So is "nice"
Nice

Wouldn’t couldn’t the solar power the microwave? LiFe batteries can easily output well over 2,000 watts…
For 3-4, great setup. Not a couples RV, but that’s MY needs, not everyone’s need. Good value, and great video.
I'm still shocked with that oven/stove.... Nice to see that!
Great info per always. Thanks for the tour.
I guess if you are in your twenties it’s ok but the east west beds aren’t comfortable for the person up against the wall. Remember you spend eight hours trying to sleep.
I LOVE the sink in the shower bc I've thought that would be better than a sink outside 😁 awesome
very nice unit. the only thing i don't like is the bunk beds. being single, i would prefer somthing just a bit smaller. but i do like this.
That’s sweet. I dig it. Few modifications and we’re in business! And killer price!
This is my type of RV. Thanks again great review and video.
Good layout. Good for a standard pickup.
I loooove tis layout... is in my short list for sure!!!
Nice layout for this size trailer.
Right price for a great set up!
Looks very good to me
Nice
This layout is so important for people with kids. I’ve been looking for a bunk trailer this size to pull behind my odyssey.
Uh... Be careful. I'm looking for the same thing as you. The Odyssey towing capacity is 3,500 lbs. This trailer is at the max empty.
Nice floor plan. Would like to see a floor plan this size for couples. Thanks for your reviews
Take a look at the G19FD floor plan.
The diagram on the inside of the door showed A/C on the roof, but this unit does not appear to have A/C which probably explains the lower price. I wish a lot of RVs came with a place for more than just a couple of batteries. Is it ok for an electric tongue jack to operate off of lithium batteries? If so you could put two S0K marine grade batteries there at 206ah each which would give you 330 useable amp hours. I can't imagine the tongue jack drawing too much of a load. Unlike an engine starter.
You can see the A/C on the cover photo.
It has a/c
You missed the a/c unit. No rear bumper or spare tire?
Spare is mounted underneath.
Good Morning My Good Bro Of Big Truck & Big RVs
