Default Sleep in unlimited?
Hey....

Going on a road trip 6 hours away. I'm cheap and thinking of sleeping in back of unlimited jk with seats down. Anyone do this for an entire night or three? Lol. Have another adult person with me too.

Advise and suggestions?

I did it once. Bring a lot of stuff to lay on to make it comfortable. Hopefully you don't mind being pretty intimately close to said other person as it will be tight

Definitely need some padding underneath, under 6' tall you both should be OK, anything over may be a bit cramped. Also if you sleep in the back you will need to plan on where you store your gear when your "taking up space".

I have slept in mine many times for 3 or 4 nights at a time, down to 17°F.

Done it in other vehicles. Get some foam (3 inches)or more. Just have to fill in the space when the seats are down.
