Ever slept in your C6?
 

I know, this is :willy: :ack: :crazy: :crazy2:. I also know that this is why you have your (insert vehicle suited for sleeping here). I also know that is why there are hotels/motels.

This was/is strictly for fun and each of these was on a multi-day trip and only one night was spent sleeping in the Vette. The first, in my VY 2007, was about 10 miles north of Ensenada, Mexico, along the Baja, Mexico, Pacific Ocean coastline. At the campground it cost $6.00 to park there overnight. The second was last May in my TR 2011 and is at a National Forest campground (cost $0) about 10 miles east of the north rim of the Grand Canyon. Location, location, location. I sleep stretched out on my back with my torso in the cargo area on a pad and my legs going out over the console. Can even see the stars up through the hatch glass :rock: :rock: :rock:

Only in my garage.

The other day Doing 80 in a 20. :rofl:

Looks like the poor pup got the gravel side of the car and not the (somewhat) grass side. And to answer your question; not yet.

Only when wifel unit is P.O.'d.
So far not yet in 32 years.

First wife... twice in '73 vert.

Man, look at the sagging rear. Looks like a drag launch :rofl:

Not IN my Callaway Centennial GS Vert but beside it in garage no less than a dozen times. Wife has suggested I just move a cot out here. BUT.... If I was going to, where you did sounds pretty cool. Especially on ocean. That would be a memory only Alzheimer's could rob me of.

Yep. That is a stock Vette loaded up for a 10 day, 4,000 mile trip. This was the first night on the road.

Don't worry, he slept over on the other side of the car attached to a 20 foot lead attached to a tree such that it wouldn't let him out in the road. :rock: :rock: :rock: He LOVED the temp compared to Phoenix (He is a VERY furry Chow). I kept telling myself I wasn't cold :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

You got it completely! PRICELESS :rock: :rock: :rock:

I believe that one buddy, Ive been there.. And a very nice garage to nap in. Only problem is all the projects surrounding you in there, I couldnt have my scatter brain that close to them.. Miller Lite helps tho!!

I crashed in mine for a few hours in Vegas waiting to check into my hotel room. Not too bad...

not overnight

napped at a rest area in NC on the way back from my one and only road trip to see my Dad before he left us.... 2 hours.. not bad....

You are pulling my chain right?

If I drive between NJ and Florida without a full overnight stop, I usually pull into a motel parking lot and take a one to two hour snooze.

Nope.

One time. The lane markers woke me up. :eek:

:iagree::iagree::iagree:

You Sir Are TOTALLY AWESOME!!

I'm afraid to take my Jeep and go surfing down there anymore

I need to rethink that!


:thumbs:

at a rest area
 

once when driving back from NY. I took a cat nap for about an hour or so.

Thanks, just having a little adventure! The trip back back across the border in Tijuana was no picnic. 3 hour stop and go while traffic with all the street vendors and beggars plying their trade. Also, this was in 2008 before all the cartel stuff became big news. But at least you already know how absolutely beautiful and pristine that coast is once you get south of Tijuana :rock:

I accidentally knocked out for like 2 hours once, oh Lord was my neck in pain for 2 days!!!!!!

fuk that! never again!

:yesnod: And a few other things. :D

No, sleeping in the vehicle after drinking all night is frowned upon here. :D

The reason you have never slept in yours is because you drink all night, every night? :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

"Ever slept in your C6?"

Just once briefly....then I decided I should stop driving and get a room for the night. ;) Joking aside, I've slept in worse places. If circumstances called for it I could sleep in the Corvette.

Here I thought this thread was about something else, like with someone. And yes, that's possible too. :D

Depends on what your deffinition of "sleep" is? :rofl:

Drove to see DSV after work one night after work and drove home was about 12 hours of driving dinner and bs and buddy did some driving for me while I slept in my new DSVettes cover leather, Alcantra seats :)

I had a 1977 Olds Toronado once. That was a sofa on wheels. The Vette? Couldn't sleep in it if i tried. I need a shoe horn to get in and out of it.

Yea, I snoozed back there for a few hours while attending the Rolex 24 last year (had to miss this year's race, darn it). Stretched out in the back area the way you described.

I was so tired, I could have slept standing up.


There's so many homeless people near the Daytona Beach area, I would not think of doing it there.

When I took my Road Trip last year I slept in my GS at a rest stop for about 2 hours. I slept in the drivers seat, It was ok for the short time. I had gotten very tired and decided to rest a bit!!!

I want to die like my Grandfather in his sleep. Not screaming like the other people in the car with him...

I slept curled up in the back of my vette once. I loved it!!

You need to either tell us what comedian you heard tell that one OR you are, or should be, a comedy writer :rock: :rock: :rock:
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

At Eldora Speedway. couple buddies took camper. i followed them out in Corvette. was planning sleep in camper. too much snoring couldnt sleep. wasnt too bad. passed out with beer in hand..:thumbs:

Never for a night but sometimes i'll go catch a cat nap over lunch.

Yep for 4 hours in my GS convertible.That was after 3 and a half days of being awake .2500 miles to Flint Michigan in my Chip Foose Ford Flex then 2500 miles back in my 2012 GS convertible.Had no choice cuz I think my eyeballs were rolling up into the top of my head.Best trip ever. :)

Yes, Overnight while parked in the Corvette corrall at Petit Le Mans last October. Never again

Stretched out as I described or in the seat?

I take frequent road trips between Florida and New Hampshire and drive straight through every time. I usually pull into a rest stop around 4:00 AM and crash for 2 or 3 hours. I stay in the drivers seat with my head rest on a towel against the window. Sometimes I have a slight stiff neck for a couple hours but I can't justify a hotel room for just a few hours. :D

Hahahahahahahahahahaha
I hear ya,
Hahahahahahaha Sorry it caught me off guard

Only on the interstate. That's what cruise control is for.

Hell, yeah. Me and the kid (my Sheltie) make the trek from WA to AZ and usually drive it and sleep in the car. He has night farts, tho, and wakes me up...at least I think it's him...ok, I blame him.

I figured you would be the type to sleep in your car with a dog. err Dog's? :thumbs:

Stalking behavior is not only against Forum rules it is against the law. Do not do it again. Fair and final warning.

I've slept in my Z06 numerous times during road trips.

It's not the most comfortable car I've slept in due to the limited rearward tilt of the drivers seat but it's do-able.

And what did you do when you left this in my thread?

Black went better than the top. Bling around the plate looks absurd. Adding Corvette logos to tail light lenses is beyond words bad. TOTAL FAIL IN EVERY REGARD DEMONSTRATES COMPLETE LACK OF TASTE


Don't you dare threaten me.

Only when my wife is driving when we are on a trip.
