I have no idea what I'm doing but I'm trying to learn... (Sleeping area)

I pulled my 60% seat as well and made a platform with storage containers underneath. I'm 6'3" so I like the headroom of the lower deck but theres room to spare.
The platform piece behind the passenger seat is separate and removed when not in use so the seat goes back to normal.
The rest of the deck stays in all of the time as I have no kids, just a dog whos bed fits perfectly

"The thing is a good drawer system/sleeping area can add a lot of weight. How often do you have sleep in parking lots?"
Done it multiple times because the camping area we usually go-to's are 6-10+ hours drive, and I can drive straight but sometimes its safer to take a nap. My RTT is about 170lbs lol, base on the sliding drawer that I will be building, it will be about 110LBS.
Here's the idea where it came from...
Thanks for everyone's input.

this is my setup. 3/4in plywood for the top, side, and bottom and 2x2’s for a structural frame. The platform is 15” high to allow for plenty of storage underneath while sleeping. Not pictured, but it has a hinge where the seats fold up. The whole platform folds back in half and lays on itself. I put in some eyelets on the front of the sleeping platform and ran paracord up to the door handles with slip knots to adjust the tilt which prevents it from laying on the seats and keeps it taught. Cheap version of a temperpidic lol. Removed 3rd row seats which make for excellent open cubbies on the sides. Simple plywood slide out table on one side. Throw an air mattress on it and it’s as good as my bed at home. Plus the dog loves it. Eventually would like to add slide out drawers for easier access.

very simple and works very well.

This is the idea of what I'm going for but with a sleeping platform.
