Looking to transform your Dodge Caravan into a cozy camper? An air mattress is a must-have! Here’s a guide to finding the right size for a snug and comfortable fit:
Important Measurements
- Interior Space: Measure the cargo area of your Caravan when the second and third-row seats are folded down. Focus on the length and width at the floor level.
- Mattress Dimensions: Keep an eye out for these mattress sizes that may work:
- Twin: Great for solo travelers.
- Twin XL: A bit more length for taller folks.
- Full: Can work if the width of the van is on the wider side.
Factors to Consider
- Comfort: Do you want a plush, thick mattress or a thinner, more compact one?
- Ease of Use: Look for mattresses with built-in pumps for quick inflation and deflation.
- Storage: Select a mattress that deflates down to a size that easily fits in your van when not in use.
