Only time i can remember, went camping with a bunch of friends, they were all comfortable in the tents and I couldn't stand it so i slept in the back seat of the Jimmy. Worst sleep of my life. One thing i wanna try is turning up the heat full blast and sleeping in it overnight this winter, the sound of the heater makes me so sleepy:zzz: :D

I've slept in my protege5 when I was drunk as fucking hell. the seats weren't completely flat so I had this HUGE pain in the small of my back...

another time I went to sylvan lake with my friends... my friend rich and I went up in my mom's van towing our sea-doo, while our other two friends went up in their jetta. I couldn't find a sleeping bag that wasnt full of mildew (sister had sleeping bag in south america) so I took a couple blankets and two of those blue foamie mat deals. I had like... 5 beers trying to get to sleep and I still couldn't... my friend fell asleep like nothing and snored his ass off... at 4 in the morning my other friend knocked on the window and scared the hell out of me, and asked if she could sleep in there with us. she got to sleep instantly too. I froze my fucking ass off the whole night. I was so tired I didnt go to the beach with them in the morning and they got pissed cause I wouldnt let them use the sea-doo :poosie: I slept in and the sun came out and turned the car into an oven, and I woke up in a pool of sweat.

note to self: find sleeping bag, take air mattress.

it SEEMED like a good idea at the time... and what the hell, it was free :)

I slept in my car once... Remember those huge storms out by Sylvan Lake / Pine Lake a couple years ago? Yeah. I was camping in that.... the tent got ripped right out of the ground by the wind... so I turned a picnic table upside down on top of it to hold it there, and ran for the car.

Sadly, many times. It's always nice and warm when you're hammered and fall asleep in a car. But when you wake up with your ass frozen to the seat, that's when you realize, ahhhh shit, how the hell did I end up here!

Yeah, there's been the odd messed up time I've had to sleep in my car...

It's not so bad though cuz my front seats recline all the way so it's like a bed :thumbsup:

Broke down in the middle of the night in the middle of nowhere coming back from cloverdale in BC, had to sleep it out til daylight.

I've done so many times. It sucks when you're in the van with the whole family, so you're basically sleeping sitting up. :rofl: :nut:

Recently was on a road trip down to the States this summer. It gets pretty damn cold at night! haha

Slept in my Jetta once. I had a sleeping bag though. Just folded the rear seats, got in through the trunk, closed it, head was laying on my supplied pillow which was on the folded down back portion of the seats. This was early summer, had a very good sleep. :)

Left at 10:00pm to head to Van city with one of my buddys to go party at UBC and U of VIC. We got to Van City in 9 hours but we were super tired so we crashed in his intergra for a few hours and then tried to find the university. Best road trip i have ever been on. I recomend that if you have buddys at U of Vic to go and check it out i love that campus and the people are awsome!

can't sleep in the car, racing seats don't recline back far enough, however i have slept in my minivan before. it was my first weekend back in lethbridge and wanted to show some friends how the back seats fold into a bed and ended up crashing in the back. not the best sleep i've ever had

The WORST sleep of my life was on the floor of Toronto's Pearson airport. I hate waiting overnight for connecting flights :thumbsdow

I slept once in my very first car, long story as to why, it actually was a pretty comfortable sleep.

I've done the same thing in a mini van. Those seats dont recline back very far. My back has never been the same.

drove from Vernon to Whistler, on the way up Sea to Sky highway there was a truck that was on fire so we had a dealy for 3 hours. There were no camgrounds that had any spots let. The Nissan Micra was full with a sub box and we had three bikes and all our gear in the car. We slept in the car that night with semi trucks going by all night. If I had a scanner I would show you all the pic of the morning after. It was the worst sleep I have ever had.

only once, was super tired and was a long ways yet from home.

Pulled over, fully reclined my Recaros, grabbed my blanket and pillow I keep in the rear and set my cell alarm to wake me up in5 hours. was amazed at the comfort of the seats! nice firm sleep and the huge bolsters made for handy "anti-sleep rolling" devices" hahaha
