I'm guessing the dog felt the same way because she could have moved to the front seat if she wanted to but rarely ever did. I never had a problem being bothered while sleeping there or any questions from DOT about having slept there. Now that I have moved up to a semi the frame and 6 month old custom mattress (Still in the factory protective plastic!) are just sitting in my garage taking up space... Maybe I should post it up for sale one day...[/QUOTE]
