Summary
His fitted Tesla Model Y air mattress is comfortable, and at 5'9" he can sleep fully stretched out. Storage holds weights, tea, toiletries, cables, and a 12-volt kettle; water reaches 60°C in 20 minutes, boiling in 30 minutes. Starlink Mini works through the windshield at roughly 100 Mbps down and 25–30 up, but overnight use costs about 10 miles.
Insight
Tesla camping shifts from a discussed plan to a workable routine, while small logistical problems immediately surface.
