Most memorably near Monument Valley. Scary so parked in hospital car park. Still terrifying but did get to to it the valley at dawn with no one there so worth it

Lots of times , me and DB went to car shows / races a lot a few years ago so slept in his big car for two nights on the trot may times but after a while we bought a huge tent that was a sod to put up

Once, after our tent had flooded. "Slept" on the front seat, but barely got much sleep as I found it very uncomfortable. In the morning I had very swollen ankles - like I would on a plane. It would have been much better on the back seat or lying down in the back of an estate I think, but it was a very small hatchback.
