Just a little viewer FYI HEST now offers the GFC Trans-Form-A-Floor 4" of heavenly sleep 😴 (closes with no issues NOTE! Only available for standard 50" midsize. TurboNap, as you mentioned, comes in all sizes, but it's only 3"). We also use a bunch of SeaSucker products for monitors, RotopaX, shovel mount, and universal tie downs. No plans on selling any time soon. And yes, winter camping rocks. No people and no bugs. 😂 Enjoy the AT definitely a lot more room. I know RevereOverland ran with one for some time but switched over to the AluCab. Pros and Cons of everything. 🛻+⛺️=🙂!

      @Exploringthewildlands Yes, you're correct! I should edit my comment only on the standard 50" midsize. That's so cool you're digging the AT! It's fun to try new things and figure out new systems. Not to mention, you get a ton of space with our the weight of some of the other campers on the market. I think that's why we still have our 1999 Coleman popup. Of course, it hasn't left the driveway in over a year. 🤣 Happy Camping! - Mark
