First, almost real, campout in my ProLite Suite

Postby hwitten » Thu Jun 06, 2013 9:45 pm

More like a sleep test as I'm parked in our front yard :)

Finished the Grey Water Tank today. Tweaked the sleeping area by adding 1 1/2" mattress overlay. Decide to test it out while close to home... really close.
Went for a test drive to see how TV antenna behaved. All is well. Going to try highway speed tomorrow and maybe a real campout.

I agree, it's cute. We need more pictures though.

And the URL to the manufacturers website! :D

Thanks for adding ProLite's link JuneBug.

Was out getting some more foam. The regular 4 in. plus 1 1/2 in. topper didn't quite cut it for me so I'm adding a 3 inch egg-crate pad. Actually going to replace the 1 1/2 in first and if still not to my liking I'll add the 1 1/2 as well.

More pictures soon.

Much better sleep success after adding 3 inch egg-crate foam. Had a comfortable sleep. Would have been even better had it not been for the now seemingly normal interruptions of having to get up every few hours :)

I now have my day and night mode figured out.
