KassDays released a new video showing exactly how to turn a Chevy Traverse into a comfortable, no-build sleeping platform.
In “The SUV Hotel | Trunk Mate Install & The Secret to a Level Bed,” I installed the Trunk Mate in the back of my 2021 Traverse. This simple wooden slat system drops right onto the folded rear seats, giving you a flat, full-length sleeping area with zero permanent modifications.
At the 5:20 mark I share my little “secret” for getting the support legs perfectly level — the part that usually frustrates most people.
Once the platform is in, just add your favourite sleeping setup: inflatable mattress, foam topper, or whatever you like best. The front seats still work for sitting up, so it’s totally livable for weekend trips or quick overnighters.
Pro tip: Throw in a portable toilet. It gives you peace of mind when nature calls and there’s no decent restroom around.
If you’re looking for an easy, affordable way to camp in your Traverse (or most SUVs), this is a solid option. Video is live now on the KassDays YouTube channel. Sleep flat. Travel simple.
