Macon,

Try getting a Thermarest from REI or your favorite camping store and use it
in addition to the stock cushion.  It should add another 1 1/2 to 2 inches
to your sleeping comfort depending on the one you purchase.

Subject:  Sleeping comfort in campers??

The 2 inch foam pad that came with our 1997 Eurovan for sleeping on the
platform of the pop top is uncomfortable:  not enough give in it for your
butt, so sleeping on your back is particularly uncomfortable.
Has anyone found a replacement or supplement for the platform that makes
sleeping more comfortable?  I would prefer something, obviously, that does
not take up much room for storage during the day, and yet something that
you don't necessarily have to blow up at night.
I would be very grateful for any suggestions.  I want to surprise my wife
with this as a Christmas present.
