This is part 1 of a series on how I’m going to live in my Toyota Prius! This video shows the bed that I made in the back. Subscribe for more ‘Prius Life’ videos coming soon!!
Thanks for your video! We just purchased a 2018 Prius and are looking for ideas on how to use it for car camping. Looking very forward to more from you! Again - THANKS!!
Get rid of the platform. You still have a flat surface with the seats down. Trifold foam mattress and a sleeping bag is easy to store. With an uneven surface, use a yoga mat. Fold the yoga mat in half to even the uneven floor. Trifold mattress is leveled and softer with yoga mat under it.
Can you tell me where you got the memory foam. I bought high density foam from Amazon and cut it to shape for my Prius but it’s so hard, almost like sleeping on the floor.
Straight to the point! But My personal preference is no music
Also good for sleeping in the cold or even better with the AC on. Engine doesn't cycle very often and uses very little fuel over night
I live in my Prius to … I have a tent that goes over my hatchback screen door and canopy thru the back
Nice setup for sleeping in the Prius!!
Looking forward to seeing more videos from you!
Thanks for watching!
Camping in a Toyota Prius, I like the idea:)
I like it too :)

I love those window blockers!! Simple and easy. Where did you get that black board?
Thanks Chuck! I bought black poster board from Walmart!
Great video, straight to the point and lots of visuals!
I'm amazed a small car like the Prius has that much room for a person that tall! Great idea for the bed btw, great video thanks

Without the platform it is Not long enough….
I am 6ft tall, the seats down without the wood measures only 4.5ft…
My 2017 has a drop between the hatchback and folded seat back. Looks like that has been corrected in the 2018 Prius Prime??
Hey great build! What did you use for your window blackouts?
Great Delivery not unlike the Great James Woods!...
Anyone know a place to get a plywood customized like the 4 fold plywood in the video
Every major hardware store? Home Depot, Lowes, etc... You buy the sheet of wood and just tell them the cuts you need.
What did you do about that brand new 2-inch speed bump caused by putting the rear seat down? It looks like you're just ignoring it.
How did you make the folding ply wood? And where did you get the bed foam? Thanks

Jst waaoo
NEVER choose a black vehicle, especially to use as a shelter. Suffering in heat will be rough, use more fuel, etc.
