  • I get asked all the time about why I prefer to sleep in my backseat rather than getting a topper. Here is a dedicated video explaining why I prefer to sleep in my backseat!

    I put a cutting board in my pillow case so I can angle it against the door without the pillow folding, then I can sleep in a recliner position

      Who the heck sleeps in that position? They come in all flavors.

    I also prefer this method. I have a hard top and use my bed for storage

    I have a plywood platform on top of the back seat of my F150. Covered with an egg crate pad and a kids size memory foam pad that fits in the space perfectly. Love being able to just hop in the back and sleep, lots of storage underneath the platform. I have a hard top tonneau cover and most of my gear goes in the back. I do put one seat forward where my feet go and that allows me to sleep flat and almost completely stretch out by putting my feet in that space. All other options I have looked at are very expensive. I also like the peace of mind that I could just hop into the front seat and leave if something made me feel particularly unsafe.

    After spending the night in my drivers seat. Your video enters my orbit today!!!! I have a 2001 gmc sierra/with a topper also. After I decluter I'm going to give it a try. Those bug zappers do work!!! I enjoyed this video and eye opening content. Thanks for sharing!!

      Thank you so much for the kind words!❤️ That’s awesome! I have also spent a few nights in my front seat as well. I used to have a 97 sierra single cab long box with a topper. I miss the heck out of that truck and wish I would have started the channel way back in the day with that truck. Eventually I’d like to get another one like it! Definitely give it a shot and let me know what you think! Thanks for leaving a comment and I greatly appreciate you watching! Cheers and safe travels!🙏🏻❤️

    Luno make s screens that fit over door, so that you n roll the windows down. keeps the bugs out and you can still close and lock the doors.

    I use a dog hammock and a Coleman inflatable kid’s mattress that fits perfectly filling all the way to the back of the front seats. A small cooler on the floor of one side and a tool bag on the other side keep everything from sinking into the gap. The mattress top is even with the top of the center console so it’s easy to slide back from the front seat.

    Amazing in depth look my man. Very Organized and cleaner then most Truck campers I know. Also got to love all the stickers around the truck, Makes it unique and interesting to look at. Great Vid!

      Thank you so much for the kind words brother!❤️ Definitely not the cleanest but I also put the truck through a lot! I love adding more stickers here and there! I feel like I have a little addiction to stickers in general and it just adds character. I appreciate your comment and thanks for watching!🙏🏻❤️

      Crack the window & shoot the bear then continue on with #2 out of the truck😂 Just kidding!😉 Honestly 99% of the time black bears are more scared of humans than we are of them… I’ve never had any issues luckily and I feel like when I unlock my truck my LED lights are so bright it would probably scare them off. Thanks for the comment and I greatly appreciate you watching!🙏🏻❤️
