It’s not just about downsizing; this is something different.
Step into what might just be the tiniest house on wheels in existence.
The living area spans only 21 square feet, equivalent to three feet by seven feet, yet the maker, YouTube personality Levi Kelly, has cleverly incorporated every modern convenience required for a cozy stay of one or two nights.
The features of this
camper truck
incorporate a shower, toilet, bed, sink, running water, and solar power.
The wooden-framed living space sits atop the bed of a 1998 4×4 Honda Acty pickup truck sourced from Japan, which Levi upgraded at a cost of $9,000 to transform into a cozy abode.
Levi, residing in Hillsboro,
Ohio
reveals that the shower system operates by connecting the hose to the faucet in the sink—which is supplied by a five-gallon water reservoir—and running it through an open window before securing it to the side of the RV.
The compact flushable port-a-potty can easily fit indoors, featuring a bubble window at the top for taller individuals to raise their heads above.

he notes that the camper includes “the tiniest wood stove available for purchase” along with a blower that circulates air via vent slots.
You can also prepare meals indoors using a portable cooker that fits underneath the bed when not needed.
Levi acknowledges that if you exceed 5 feet 10 inches in height, you might feel somewhat uncomfortable on the bed (which transforms from a bench). However, he characterizes the setup as “truly snug.”
And he told
The Independent
I’d happily remain within it forever if I weren’t tied down.
“Is it better than a home? In most cases no, but I can go where typical homes can’t.
“I haven’t stayed in it longer than a night, so maybe my opinion would change quickly.”
The truck can reach 60mph with the (removable) camping unit on the back, and Levi said that while it’s not available to rent, he will be selling it.
