I'm looking to get a bettee mattress for my kenwoKen t680 which is a twin XL , I believe.
I was at mattress store looking and then thinking, I'm not sure I'd be able to get it inside the truck .
Where do you buy a mattress to replace the one in the truck?

Go Amazon/Prime. They have lot of twin xl memory foam with gell. I've got one and love it. Wide price range spread.
tscottme Thanks this. -
If you get a chance, stop by the Petro in Kenly, NC (I-95 exit 106) or maybe Iowa 80 and look at their selections. I was impressed by several of the mattresses I saw on display when I was in Kenly a month or so ago. Looked like most, if not all of them were rolled up in plastic bags to make it easy to get into the truck.
This would at least give you an idea, then you could purchase it cheaper elsewhere. -
I think you could get one in. Beautyrest makes a great mattress. I wanted one. Wasn’t going to until I had a truck I thought was more permanent. I got a memory foam topper. 3 incher. Made other mattresses good. Now? I got a new Pete. It has a good inner spring mattress. Much like a Beautyrest. My topper on that is very good.
I am impressed with the Purple seat cushion. They make 2 mattresses. Original is a roll up for shipping. I think it would be awfully good in a truck. Purple cushion I think is better than memory foam. Perhaps memory foam is best in thinner than 3 inch? I think you’d be very happy with an Original Purple mattress.
I think I might do better than what I now have? But might just be blowing money for a little better? Purple or Beautyrest? -
I have a great deal of doubt about those rollups or inflating out of box matresses. It's crazy to me. I rather have the old style matress we can pull out of the truck any time. And a ordered a new one put in by KW or whoever paid for by the company that issued us the keys to the new truck. The old matress is gone and all the ick with it.
I am actually working on replacing a proper twin this year which will be a certain amount of dollars, it will probably come out well, but I cannot bring myself to inflate a bed out of box. It's too different to me. -

Do what we did in the olden days when we have those super small sleepers and had to crank start our trucks, get some burlap sacks and stuff it full of hay.
