We've had the FR Windjammer V-Nose for about 5 years and love it. They're a bit more aerodynamic because of the design but any mpg gain will be very slight so don't don't buy it because of that. This model seems like it tows better due to V-Nose design.

The propane tanks are a little harder to access due to being in the nose, but it's not a problem. The batteries on ours are on the tongue so they're out in the open like others.
Most people shy away from them because they don't like the "looks". I'll admit this trailer grew on me after a while and I'd buy another one in a heart beat.
The reason we bought this model is the wife liked the floor plan and ours has a large walk-in closet in the "V-Nose" which the wife really likes.
The best feature for me is VIRTUALLY NO BUGS ON THE NOSE DUE TO THE "V" DESIGN!
Bottom line is there probably are not big advantages to the V design so buy the floorplan you like.
