You are the ONLY person to think of a comfortable substrate for the bed in any car/suv conversion video. No solid plywood. Great job.

Just think about it, there’s probably at least a dozen people out there who built a car camper to your exact layout after seeing this video. It’s like having your own brand of something that people own, except it’s a brand of idea. Idk if that made sense

I later heard someone say that on a flat surface the mattress or pads are subject to molding so the slats allow for air flow and prevent molding.

Think the only thing I'd change, is either cutting the mattress in half so it can be stored in 'drive' mode without too much difficulty, or I'd use an air bed. Only problem with air beds is they aren't exactly stealth proof 😂😅 otherwise. Solid design! Minimalistic but effective and efficient. 😊

They don’t…. Your Warm and moist breath gets cooled Down when it meets the windows/Roof and then the moisture falls Down on to your sleeping bag, because cold air can’t hold as much moisture as warm air.

@@chunkyfecalbreakfast it may do so. I didn’t think of that, because I always use a pump in order to avoid warm moist air from my lungs and thereby fungi inside my mattress. I guess that supports your argument. 🙂

@bjarkenielsen8515 2 жыл бұрын
@@chunkyfecalbreakfast But then again, - it only takes 5 BIG breaths to inflate my air mattres. That equates 2 minuttes of breathing. During a 8 hours sleep you'll breathe about (8hours x 60 minutes x 10 normal breaths) = 4.800 breaths. So the breaths you put into you mattres is close to nothing, compared to your overall breathing during a night's sleep. I still think my first argument holds up. (Its not the air in the mattress that makes the difference, - instead it is your overall nightly breathing that is the culprit)

About 25 years ago I converted a mk1 fiesta into a micro camper, the bed run the full length of the passenger side (passenger seat was removed) with a mini cooker, sink and storage built into the side behind my drivers seat, it was surprisingly comfortable and I had many a fun week wild camping in lay-bys the length and breadth of the UK for literally the cost of petrol.

An option in a car, to transform it into a caravan, is to remove the right front seat (and store it in a storage room or carry it on the roof rack), and in the long space on the right side put a double folding berth, even better using mattresses inflatables.

I use a hand made special foamy that rolls nicely with freezer on rear driver side giving me solar panel on the roof with the kayak and then have a bike on the back trailer hitch. Bed doubles as office kitchen etc. So I roll the bed out of the way to make space to cook inside during rainy times with the sun roof open and peice of plastic and solar panel keep the water out while I sleep with bug nets is quite comfortable for nomadic life few months of the year. You could go further and get a Chinese diesel heater and live year round if I wanted. Especially with house and gas prices 😆 🤣
