FWIW all, I've been using 2 of the high density memory foams. Really nice addition. But.... Mr. Buese. "self inflating/deflating" ? How's that work? --- :^) I'm interested in ditching the extra Westy foam I now carry. My engine conversion created a "lump". The extra piece evens things out. Not the best. I know one of Dave Marshalls rigs has a similar conversion. IIRC, he said he uses an inflatable mattress. I figure maybe 1 HD foam and a couple of those thermarest things might be ok? (I won't get into trunk weights) Thanks! Neil.
