Are you talking about filling the gap behind the front seat backs?
How to Build a Platform for Car Camping
Recently got a Passport 2021 and I'm in love with it!
My goal is to be able to sleep comfortably enough in the back of my car.
Has anybody tried building a platform which can support an air mattress in the back and if so, got any resources, guides, or pictures to learn how to build one?

Gotcha S-M-R-T ,
I think I will forego going any higher and just fill the gap with a carpeted piece of 1/2" plywood, making it level with the existing cargo floor. Hopefully a no tools, no hassle setup.
I'll take pics when I get it completed.
Extra gear that won't fit inside the car will be in plastic trunks, under the car while we sleep. I can ratchet strap them all
together. I can even wrap a security cable and lock them up if I feel the need. Most places we camp we hardly see a soul and don't hide or lock anything up.
All our valuables will fit inside the car. They all fit in a very very small space, lol.
Oh, and if the Goblins come a knocking, I'll let the MAGNUMS do the talking. I ain't scared.
Let me know if you get yours done first. Good luck!
Thanks, MJ

I'd love to see pics and read your review when you get it all set up.So, I actually went with the Luno Life air mattress... little expensive but I think its a good alternative to building a platform like I was hoping before. Apparently it stays inflated forever from reviews I've read. Hope your build is going well MJ!
Thanks a bunch.
