I think it would be fine,with the seats folded down it wouldn't be bad at all.

I'm 6 foot give or take an inch,and I can lay down at a diagonal in the back pretty comfortably

Go for it! I'd like to hear how it goes.

When I went camping last year I slept in it. Removed the bottom rear cushion completely and folded the back portion down. Put down a cheapo foam pad, a comforter and a blanket then two sleeping bags on top to sleep under. Very comfortable

I don't sleep in the back, too much **** for me to fit. I do bring a hammock some 5/50 cord and d rings and hook one part up to a tree and another to roof rack/rail of the jeep

It's doable. Bring a warm blanket for winter and off seasons and make a screen with magnets so you can roll you windows down in summer. I went down to Maryland a few weekends back. Wasn't plannin on sleeping there. Slept in the jeep a few hours and my only complaint was being cold cause I wasn't prepared. I don't use the back seats so they are removed. I laid my head on the center console

At 6'0" I've done it and will say, yes and no. Yes a 6' foot person fits. No, there isn't 6' of flat under you. Even diagonal it's a little too short. My feet or head hang off or bump into the lift gate. A young person or somebody that can sleep curled up will be fine. I can't sleep like that and have to be straight. Something needs to be placed on the rear seat floor to make it long enough. Easy enough with a bag of clothes or whatever.

I totally agree it's convenient. You can skip a lot of gear. This will be my new setup for when I go by myself and only 1 or 2 nights.

i am only 5 4 so i think it should be about perfect for me and the pup

Gee oh Dee

You can also flip the front seats around.

A long time ago there was a thread about someone who did it. You gotta reverse the seats, tho, for some reason.

My seats are fairly easy to pull out, just 4 bolts per side. A good option for me as I'm 6'1".

I used to sleep in my xJ every day for my lunch hour at work.

Every day lol .

i have done it pretty comfortably before when the power went out last summer and it was like an oven in the house, even just left the hatch open all night for air and im 6'4" just throw down some padding and take out the bottom part of the seat and it gets flat

Gee oh Dee

I didn't flip the seats around, but I slept in the back pretty much daily.

We get an hour for lunch. Doesn't take an hour to eat a sandwich. Not much else to do.

Done it a couple times just me and my wife
But my wife my one year and I was too much 2 weeks ago when we did it. Not doing that again.
He loved it though

I've slept in the back of mine a few times. I keep too much stuff back there now to do it, but my front seats recline enough for me to sleep comfortably up front.

I forgot to mention I used a queen size themarest topper. 4-5 inches of space foam makes a pretty big roll. Was comfy though.

I sleep in the back of mine all the time.. Probably over 60 times. The key is to sleep on an angle from driver to passenger. I'm 5'10. My fiance and I have stayed back there maybe a dozen times and it get's a little tight.
