Improve gas mileage while towing?

I was getting 9 mpg while towing a 20' enclosed trailer. My truck normally gets around 18 mpg.

Has anybody done a comparison with flat nose and V nosed trailers? Is it worth constructing a V nose on my existing trailer?

Would a truck cap help? Maybe reduce the turbulence and help the air flow above the trailer?

Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
BK
