<<Both I and my wife find it difficult to sleep (i.e. the various stages of

too much for the width available. We find the top bed too short because the
ceiling is too low (we are both 6'1" tall). The foam seems to be too hard.
Jeez, it sounds like the Princess and the Pea. We're just beginning,
though, and are considering softer foam, air mattresses, etc. Up top,>>
I bought some foam mattress covers at Wal Mart last week for $6ea. The Queen
size should be a little bigger than you need, but can be trimmed.
The foam has those little bumps in it and claims to better distribute your
weight. I used this for the first time last weekend and I have to say it was
a big improvement.
Put the foam on top of you mattress and hold it in place with a sheet. You
should be able to store the cover in the top, but for the lower bed you will
need to find a place to stow it when not in use.
Now I used these on my '74 Westfalia, but you should get similar results with
any year EV or EVC.
