You guys are nuts sleeping in you Jeeps. I go with a $50 cot with a thermarest next to my jeep. If its cold I rig up a tarp to keep me dry. My back can't handle sleeping in a Jeep or pickup bed anymore.

several times now I have slept in the rear bench seat of my JK. . I sleep normally on my side with legs bent. Head on the tub fender and feet on the other. I am 5 foot seven inches tall.
For more than a few hours it can be uncomfortable. My shoulder will be sore afterwards.
It would be better if the rear seat leaned back all the way to the tailgate so there would be a little more room to lay down.

I work at this online store Xprite USA, they have this sleeping pad that fits perfectly in my JKU. I love it so far, it is foldable and can attach the backseat.

Since I switched to a self-inflatable sleeping pad (not an air mattress), I will never go back to air mattresses. These pads hold their air all night, and are very comfortable. They self-inflate enough when you unroll them, that you could probably sleep on them as-is, but I spend another 15 seconds to puff them up nice and firm.
I got the REI 3.5" sleeping pad- you can go thinner, but my 38-year-old spine thanks me for this. I can set this right on a rock (I actually slept outdoors on concrete with this pad and woke up refreshed).
REI Camp Bed 3.5 Self-Inflating Pad
They also sell a cheap kit that straps one pad to a second pad, making a dual sleeper if you have a companion. Just keeps the pads from sliding apart. My girl and I have identical pads and sleeping bags which zip together so it's easy to go solo or make a big bed for the two of us.

have used the rei 3.5 sleeping pad a lot, rolls up tight and takes up little space and is comfortable when unrolled
