Hello everyone,

I got an R1S three weeks ago and am outfitting it for a 6-month crosscountry road trip. As part of that build out I am removing the middle row of seats to make a bed platform. Here's a video I made of removing the platform, based on instructions that I found on this forum post.

Very interesting. Thanks for posting.
Just curious that you got your travel companion to agree to sleep in the back. Mine wont.
Enjoy your trip, post some final pics once the bed/platform is installed.

Wife and I have been on dozens of car camping trips in the Model Y, but decided we had to upgrade to a larger vehicle if we went full-time for and extended stretch.

Update on the platform build coming in a few days! I was even able to make a video of myself building the platform for the R1S in the R1S...lol.
