Sleeping in your Camaro, how have you done it?

Hey, as the title says, how have you slept in your Camaro?

Is it safe to say, fold down the back seats, and sleep on top of them and half way into the trunk?? Would the weight of say a 220 pound man break anything back there - since you have the spare tire/ battery in there, and the seats being squished under you due to folding. Would you suggest this method for a night or 2 or 3?

I mean ya you could use the front seats of course since they are pretty comfortable.

Haha, I may try the drivers seat too@!! Those things fold allll the way down and are just incredibly comfy!

I should clearify, I am going hiking and exploring long distance, and would prefer this over paying for a over priced hotel or sleeping in tent where bears could eat me lol.

I personally have not slept in my Camaro, but I had 3 kids sleep quite comfortably on our way back from Camaro5Fest III. BTW...2 teenagers and one soon to be next month.

As a teenager I slept in my Toyota Avalon all the time. The Camaro is just as comfy up front, so I assume I'd just do it like that

Haha, I would prefer to save that money for useful things on my travels. I looked up the room prices and they average to around 60$ a night. Which makes no sense to me, why pay 60$ to use a bed and shower....for 8 hours.

I slide the drivers seat back a little bit and then put it down to where its almost touching the back seats. Pillow if you got one, if not just lay there and enjoy. Its actually pretty comfortable. I actually slept in my car during C5F, it was either get a room and not get any goodies or get the goodies and sleep in my car. Besides, Friday night I was in no condition to walk or drive to what would have been my hotel.
