Welcome to Johnny's world on wheels! Dive into the journey of Johnny, a full-time traveler who has transformed his truck camper into a cozy and functional home for himself and his two dogs, Luna and Willa. Join him as he gives you a tour of his compact yet well-equipped living space, Vangelina Jolie, built to thrive in all four seasons.
🚐 Inside Vangelina Jolie: Discover how Johnny has creatively maximized space and comfort in his truck camper. From a well-stocked kitchen with modern amenities to a versatile bedroom with ample storage for his adventure gear, every corner is thoughtfully designed.
🍳 Kitchen Conveniences: Johnny's kitchen is a testament to efficient use of space, featuring a three-burner cooktop with an oven, a large sink, and ample storage for cooking essentials. His clever additions, like the slide-out pantry and power station, demonstrate his attention to detail and practicality in tiny living.

🚿 Functional Bathroom: Johnny's truck camper includes a wet bath, offering convenience and ease of maintenance. He shares his preference for a flushing toilet over a composting one, highlighting the simplicity and hygiene of his choice.
🔋 Power and Heat Solutions: Understanding the importance of self-sufficiency, Johnny has equipped Vangelina Jolie with a diesel heater and an upgraded solar power system. This ensures that he stays warm and powered up, regardless of the season or location.

64 gallons of total water… An onboard propane generator… A really good bathroom… And an air conditioner, propane, furnace, very generous refrigerator, space, an oven, and two 30 pound propane tanks. Plus with the upgrades he did for power and heat. I would say this is a fantastic fully self-contained off grid RV. I can’t say enough about how important it is to have an onboard generator for convenience, or for “just in case”. I hate slide outs because of their propensity to either be finicky or break… But there are two dogs and enough space to think about, so #FreePass, lol. I think this is a really good set up. Especially because he has a quad cab and the dogs can hang out in the backseat during driving days. Of course I also love that it’s a dually and I’m hoping it has four-wheel-drive for those snow days and sandy beaches.

I’ve been living full time in my 2021 Arctic Fox 865 LB for the last 3 years. First several years, very nice, minimal problems. This last year though this camper is falling apart faster than the American dollar. Roof constantly leaks in different places, the shell on the outside has separated in many spots, the awning is off track, the kitchen sink cabinets collapsed, thermostat, both fans and the toilet all gave out. The worse thing is my floor has turned into a sponge.

The propane furnaces that come installed from the factory on modern campers do not create moister inside the camper. That's exhausted to the outside. Only propane heaters that are catalytic like the Heater Buddy create moister inside where they are burning. And yes, your diesel heater is more efficient but when it clogs up from black soot, you will appreciate that propane furnace.

If you are outside, can you open up the slide part way to get into the bathroom or do you have to open up the slide all the way to get inside. It looks like a partial opening would get into the bathroom from the outside. Does the manufacturer recommend opening up the slide part way or only all the way. Great Camper. The extra room with the slide is great. As I get older, I will need to make a pit stop down the road and curious how far I need to open slide to use the bathroom.

Nice truck camper! It looks, as the title says, very spacious. And finally someone who says the flushing toilet with a black isn’t as gross as a separating composting toilet.

I mean how disgusting can it be to connect a hose and empty the tank compared to empty a composting toilet?

Toilets in rigs are definitely all about personal preference. For some, black tanks feel like the easiest option, and for others composting toilets do the trick. :) All comes down to the systems you want to incorporate in a build.

2:54 A Propane RV Furnace doesn't introduce moisture into the interior of the RV. The propane furnace produces a DRY heat just like the diesel heater does. I'm baffled why people believe that a propane furnace puts moisture in the living space. They have a heat exchanger just like a household gas burning furnace, which keeps the exhausts gases OUTSIDE of the living space. A catalytic heater, such as a Mr Buddy heater, or Olympic Wave heater, DOES put moisture in the living space, because the propane is being use IN the living space.

@MilesOSmiles 5 ай бұрын

You're correct, I misspoke on the propane furnace causing condensation
