Two friends and I plan to spend part of X Mas break sleeping in a Chevy Suburban at the Mad RIver Glen Parking lop. Does anyone have helpful tips to have a more enjoyable experience for these 3 nights? THanks

remove back seats and throw an air matress in. super cheap super comfy. Those $20 coleman stoves are the bomb. just grill some brats and burgers and you will be set. Oh and lots of whiskey and beer

dude lol... its gonna be freaking cold, I've done it once in my car, not by choice... well it was, long story... but it sucked
Get a super awesome warm sleeping bag, then bring LOTS of layers of clothes so that if you do get cold you can look like a marshmellow, also you can change into new ones after your done skiing.
finally, a bottle of jack and crown for each of you, then if worst comes to worst and you are SUPER cold... bottoms up

I sleep in a car on ski trips quite a bit.
Dont bother with heaters or insulation or anything... just throw down on a -20 or -40 bag. Its cheaper that way.
Make sure you get everything dry before retiring to the vehicle.
Either get the heat going in the morning or go into the lodge before going skiing... it sucks skiing with cold boots.
Dont expect it to be super cheap just because you arent paying for a hotel or something, gas is a bitch.
