Ya I learned this the hardway in Leavenworth. Fell asleep in a Safeway parking lot at like 11:30pm with just a blanket on and woke up an hour later uncontrollably shivering lol.
put on all my base layers and got in my sleeping bag and was fine rest of the night. Had just drove 18+ hours and wasn’t thinking straight when I stopped for the night. Will never make that mistake again cause I have a feeling if my body didn’t wake me up I’d have died.
LogiSleeping in your car isn't necessarily a replacement for a sleeping bag, it can still get really cold (assuming it's cold at night when you go). If you have a good amount of warm clothes and blankets you should be more than fine though
