Re: [RC] [RC] questions! - Barbara McCraryOur mattress is located in the gooseneck of our aluminum trailer, too. We first placed a piece of carpeting, then a sheet of plywood, then a mattress of 4" foam that I bought at a mattress shop. We didn't cover the foam or do anything fancy, but it's very comfy. I think the plywood is a necessity for insulating the aluminum, which is a good conductor of heat and cold.

Me too - I find that every time I roll over on an air mattress, that new spot is very cold and you need a lot of insulation on the bottom to keep it from being uncomfortable when it is cold. Now this could be because the mattress' bottom surface was the gooseneck of the (aluminum) trailer, which I am certain NASA should study for its super-efficient heat loss properties. BTW If you do use a propane heater inside be sure it is the one that is safe for use in enclosed spaces with a catalytic converter.
