I once flew American Business Class from Japan on a 747, and I had this crazy seat that faced the seat next me with a partition between us and a section that folded down to make a bed. It was fine as long as you were 6 ft tall or less. I am 6'3", and my head and feet pressed against the ends of my area. It was the worst sleep I have ever gotten.

It isn't great. The 4dr is much more comfortable for sure in this case.

I slept in my tent in Grizzly bear, Wolf, Muskox areas plenty of times, I spent 6 full weeks doing that 2 summers ago.

Good luck with whatever you choose. If you wanna go wheeling get the 4dr and sleep in it, if not get a truck with a proper sized bed and be comfortable.
Gladiator only has a 5ft bed thats the only bed you can get, can't get a proper size bed LOL my Ram has a 6.5 ft bed

I guess I could do this! I added a recovery package with winch, off-road lights, snorkel, ZR2 Bison comes with 35's tires, this is my price, employee pricing!

Not my cup of tea! It depends on what you want to use it for. Are those mods something you want and would use. Or, do they all just look cool to you. Either way, think about what's important to you a year down the road.

that’s a lot of coolant in the reservoir
Yep, on the coolant level and if you do pull the trigger on this, please take the Power Tank off the rear bumper, compressed anything hanging that low off the back, you will make the news if someone plows into you from behind, and last thing, change the color of those but ugly green SEMA BS wheels. Oh yeah, OK wild animals county?? HAHAHAHAHA. Maybe getting sucked out of the bed sleeping (with the tailgate down) by a tornado in OK would be the scariest thing to get you.

THat's a very nice setup, I'd enjoy that. Is that available for the JT? If so maybe that is the answer as you'd have some added length making sleeping in it likely good.

If they make the system to fit the JT you might just have an all in one solution with an off road rig that you can sleep in comfortably.
