I use a tow pro cover on the front of my coachman when towing. Takes 30seconds or so to fit .
Slide up awning rails each side, zip up the middle, clip 4 elastic mounted clips to edge of lower skirt, clip retaining strap under draw bar into buckle.
I could have fitted and removed cover 5 time in the time it took me to type the description.
I paid £260 direct from tow pro. If you are not in a hurry and going to the camping and caravan show at NEC in February I believe it is, you could get show discounts and save a bit.

Tyres also make a difference, I recently fitted Goodyear all season tyres to replace Pirelli scorpion verde all season, not yet towed with them but solo they lift a lit more water than the Pirelli’s did, I also have Volvo mudflaps fitted to my xc70.
