Ease of towing an 8-ft wide trailer vs a 7-foot trailer

Not only is the Casita narrower, it is also lower in height and rounded on the edges and corners. Much less frontal area

Again: this front-profile difference really only affects fuel mileage- little to do with "ease of towing", which is the O.P.'s question. Towing "ease" is much more a factor of load distribution/balance/suspension/tires than is frontal profile.

And I'm speaking as a present owner of a trailer similar to the Casita, and a former user of wider/more conventional trailers.
