Yes the extension cord was plugged into my camper's outside outlet and then the extension cord was plugged into my truck and its an old diesel
That is most likely your problem if I'm reading you right. The truck cord is plugged into the camper yes? GFI are not real fond of electric heating elements particularly older ones. All of the outside outlets are connected to the GFI If you are determined to replace the GFI if you have seen one you have seen them all they all are the same they follow the national electrical code (NEMA). Now depending on how the box is mounted it maybe too deep I have seen some interesting mounting with boxes too deep and cock eyed You may have to loosen the outlet mounting screws just enough to get the cover on. Bottom line if it ain't broke don't fix it! Your camper should have a 30 amp plug plugged it into that it will free up a 20 amp on the post, plug the truck into that beware the truck may also trip that.
