Is it possible to sleep in new Hilux

[pilgrim]

Hi guys,

I've got question regarding sleeping in Hilux cabin?
My friend got new Mitsubishi Triton (L200) - he removes restraints on front sits, pushes front sits the maximum forward, lay down backrest and after such transformation he got two beds ...
something like this:


Will it be possible in a new Hilux?

Anything's possible but that there looks hella uncomfortable, I'd rather throw my swag in the tray than do that

Yea x2 that looks horribly uncomfortable! I love my swag they're the most comfortable things around!

have you tried? I'm asking because I can't do such transformation in my Toyota 4runner ...

[Qwerty]

Youll never get comfy inside mate

Sleep in tray better option , I'm a short ass and mostly can fit in mine (dual cab)

[greysrigging]

Well I reckon after 12 green cans ( Victoria Bitter, a popular Australian beer ) and a coupla slugs of Bundy ( Bunderberg Rum, a popular Australian rum ) those laid down seats would be as comfortable as the Honeymoon Suit at the Hilton Hotel ! Just remember to remove keys from ignition so as to not give Mr Plod the Policeman an excuse to get you for being intoxicated in charge of a motor vehicle !
Disclaimer : Some misguided Aussies abhorr VB and Bundy..... I'm not one of 'em.......

Currently I'm also using 4runner's trunk for sleeping, but even for small trip it's not very easy to take all stuff from it for long trip - about a week it's even annoying to do it each evening ... it's more easy to set a tent ... but some times it's not possible ... several times has to sleep almost in river and there was no place for tent

So I think this is good option to have possibility of such transformation

That's why I have asked whether some of you have tried to put front seat's backrest to the same level as back seats ...

X4 plus the swags quicker lol

X5 swag in the tray wins hands down, I've tried sleeping in the lux, worst night sleep ever.

Hi Pilgrim.
The front seats in the hilux wont go far enough forward to be able to do that.
If you fold the rear seat up you can lower the front seat down low enough and push it back all the way which will give you some more leg room.
Its not a comfortable sleep, but when you are tired enough its a far safer option than falling asleep behind the wheel..

Absolutely

Like skog said I've done this plenty of times but I put a thin mattress from a swag on the seats and a little plastic tub on the floor for your feet to rest on and I find it very comfy but I'm only 5ft 10 so it's easy

[gumby90]

Agreeing with the others, a swag is a must im 6ft 4, just a tad taller i fit comfortably in my dualcab tray, only just though....

I have developed spinabifida just looking at that.

something like this:

I bought this mattress lifter from here and I want to use it to put a bed in my hilux.
Will it be possible?

Yes, it is possible to sleep in a new Hilux. The seats can be pushed forward to create an area that is wide enough to fit a single or two people. The backrest can be folded down to create a bed-like area. However, the space will be quite cramped, so you may want to consider other options if you plan on sleeping in your Hilux for extended periods. Additionally, you may want to look into getting some kind of mattress or cushion to make the sleeping area more comfortable.
