The image demonstrates a working prototype of a concept on camping inside the Subaru. I was working on the idea of how much clearance I would get if I wanted to leave room for a 7″ box, featured in picture and create a level or near level platform.
Two things happened.
First, I bumped the rear hatch light and as I use my bicycle to commute everywhere during the week, I ran the battery down.
Second, I realized that with only one person I could drop the sleeping platform to the floor, shim it for level, make it 26″ wide and then use the remaining 16″ for storage on the other side of the car.
I am hoping to create 1.0 in the next three weeks, use to camp over Spring Break at least once or twice and then adjust as necessary for the summer.
