I never had a need for heat in the camper when I drive, but thinking premtively, as far as I notice all campers have sliding window right behind the cabin.
Lot of trucks have sliding rear window and if not, you can retrofit.
I heard that tractor inner tube makes pretty good seal between truck window and camper window, this way the enormous amount of engine heat instead of being wasted, will go to keep the camper warm.
You can run the furnace blower occasionally to distribute heat to tanks, but as posted above, that might not be necesary.
