Any one lower their tt

The longer they get, the higher they are as well, for clearance. If you're towing a longer tt you're going to be dragging a lot if you lower it.

Just wondered

Does yours handle badly?

If so, it likely isn't the height. Might check hitch weight, and setup, and/or weight distribution in TT. Anyway, as has been said, the floorplan has dictated your trailers height. Whether it be a slide, or just an open floor space above the wheels, it was designed, and engineered that way, and I wouldn't try to change it. Good luck.

The higher you make it the more Wind effects it

They are made higher so the slide-out mechanisms are well above the tires too.

I've all ways liked the '70s GMC motorhome because of the single step entry. (I know it's not a TT, but some one was thinking back then) The cantilever "dual axle" meant they had no axle across the floor.

Yea thats the problem with todays builds. There are alot of deck overs with 3 or 4 steps to get in

I'm in the market for a new trailer and it seems every floorplan I like is unusually tall because of this

A lot of them, like mine, cannot be lowered, due to tire clearance issues. My trailer is a "deckover" type of build, meaning the flat flooring deck is built over the tires ( no wheel wells ).
