>>2822688im 5'9", yes short, but not short enough to fit to lie flat in the back, especially since most pickups now have a 5' bed and sleeping with the tailgate open and my feet sticking out draws attention.
a hammock hidden off to the side or in the woods near the truck is less notecable.
i also have no issue sleeping in a curled up position. i can sleep anywhere and get good rest
beats paying full price for a hotel room im only gonna use for 8 hours and having to be near one when its bed time.
in the truck, i can go anywhere, and sleep anywhere.
this isnt for everyone.
also, i have rented a minivan when i roadtrip with my gf, with all the seats folded flat there is room for a queen mattress so even better sleep.
the only downside is being stuck with an anemic V6 and fwd.
