One hundred and sixty square feet may not sound like much space for a family of three and their dog - but the Cox clan from Terre Haute, Indiana, are ditching their regular rental home in favor of scaled-down living. Their diminutive home on wheels, which is nearing completion, will hardly leave room to stretch out for Cori Cox, 37, his wife Angel Tyra, 33, their eight-year-old daughter, Amelia, and Dexter, their 60lbs dog. The dwelling, which measures eight feet by twenty feet, features living space, bedrooms, a bathroom and a kitchen, but minimized to the extreme. Scroll down for video
