Truck Bed Mattress for R1T - best recommendations?

[martin85bg]

Hi Folks,
We did our 1st Camping trip last week by the beach here in Newport Beach, CA. We have a decent set up for first time campers. Everything went well as far as fitting 2 adults and a small child on a full size normal mattress. It would be perfect if we had that type of mattress that go over the wheel well and provide a little more room. ( picture below) So my question is has anyone tried that mattress version?
I found this one on amazon ( link below) but with quite steep price ($330). Maybe any other suggestion?

It says that it fits short bed Rivian in their picture description - https://www.amazon.com/Pittman-Mattress-Original-Airbedz-Coverage/dp/B08W9K3GVX?th=1

I've finished the internet looking for a 50" wide air mattress at a reasonable price. NO LUCK. I can't fathom the price of the Pittman. Not sure where to go from here. Keeping my eye on this post to see if anyone chimes in.

Great! So a 54" wide mattress will fit I'll buy it and put it in my 50" Napier bed tent and hope for the best. Maybe just under inflate a little? Thanks so much for posting!

It is not super thick, but we bought the iKamper 5087 mattress to go in our X-Cover Mini tent and it fits perfectly in the bed, just sticks beyond the tailgate by 3”. Currently on sale for $209.

If you don’t mind sharing, what size is your truck tent and how well does it fit?

This is the tent. I got Full Size 5.5-5.8. It fits well slightly bigger. The 5-5.2 will fit like a glove if you want it perfect, i just wanted bigger.

How hard is the tent to take on and off? Going to sequoia soon and am planning on doing some driving in the park while there

There a re quite a few videos on Youtube, thats where i watched it 1st. Second time was super easy. We got it done in 15-20 with my wife. Its easier if you set it up on the ground first

So today i received that fancy Pittman Airbedz expensive air mattress. ( $330) At first glance looks nice but it is that much more comfortable and really 25% more coverage i will be to tell after this weekend beach camping trip. Here is a few photos. I had to order the wheel inserts as well since i guess our wheel wells are much smaller. The width difference between both is about 5". Its basically $330 vs $21
