Lower top height, close up the gap between tow and trailer, tapered end. That ought to make for a slick, effortless tow.

Riding behind the typical travel trailer is usually a big, rumbly wake of turbulent air. Snuggling up behind it usually allows me to cut my throttle back by about a third or more, and you can see the tow vehicle speed up due to reduced load.
