Weve used aerobeds as well.
I have a Northface Trailhead4 tent,basically 8x8
the air mattress takes up the "length" of the tent
Width will depend on what you get.
What Im sayin is there isnt much room to "move around"
once the air mattress is inflated.
comfort is great.
To inflate it at a campground with no electricity,
get one of those cheap power inverters for the car.
changes 12vdc to 110ac and lets you run the pump
(also computer chargers,tv,gameboy,etc etc...
)
is this a "first trip" for the family?
