Yes, you can fit an air mattress in a Jeep Wrangler. It’s a great way to make your adventure vehicle even more versatile for camping trips and road trips.
Here’s what you need to know:
- Size Matters: A twin-size air mattress (approximately 39″ x 75″) is usually the best fit for most Jeep Wrangler models. If you have a 4-door Wrangler, you might be able to squeeze in a full-size mattress.
- The Layout:
- Fold the rear seats down completely flat.
- Move the front seats forward to gain extra space.
- You may need to slightly elevate the foot of the mattress to create a level surface since the folded seats might leave a slight slope.
- Comfort is Key:
- Choose a thicker air mattress for better support and comfort.
- If you’re tall, sleeping slightly diagonally might offer more legroom.
Tips for a Better Fit:
- Custom Shapes: Some brands make air mattresses contoured specifically for the Jeep Wrangler’s interior.
- Storage: Consider how you’ll store the deflated mattress and pump when not in use. Under-seat storage or a rooftop cargo box are good options.
- Jeep Model: The available space might vary slightly between 2-door and 4-door Jeep Wrangler models (and across different model years).
Why an Air Mattress in Your Jeep?
- Quick and Easy Setup: Perfect for spontaneous overnight trips or when you need a quick rest stop.
- Affordable: It’s a budget-friendly alternative to a rooftop tent or camper conversion.
- Flexibility: You can easily remove the air mattress when you need to use the cargo space.
