Much could be done to reduce drag on the TC. I would like to flush sides with tapered window edges, quick disconnect jacks, flat roof and basement a/c.
The quick release for the jacks is something I've been highly interested in as well. They stick out way too far, have to contribute horrible drag, and are an easy 100+ lbs I could take out of my payload if they were easier to remove. Those with 1/2'rs would love this I'm sure.
I left them on last time out as I was only pulling me, myself, and I, but if I could take them on/off quicker I could stow them in my boat while towing it much easier, and also probably gain some MPG.
I haven't done too much searching, but I haven't found any sort of solution yet. There are some "quick release" bolts and nuts out there, but all were aimed at much smaller devices than camper jacks.
