Good to know, but I am going to strike a balance between being prepared, being practical and common sense I suppose.

My sleeping bag may not work as well because it was compressed for a long time, but it sure beats nothing at all. I am not about to leave it spread out everwhere in my vehicle because of a bit of loft. There are other things I need space for in my truck.

Compressed, it fits nice and neat under the back seat. Not compressed it takes up half the space in the back seat.(for real) So I have the basics covered and thats about all I can hope for.
