Sleeping in cabover when TC is on the ground.
I am new to truck campers. We made our first outing over the last couple of days and loved it. Out TC is a 2002 Adventurer 100 WSB. I am wondering whether it is safe to sleep in the cabover bed, when...

I had my doubts too. Even tried sleeping standing up. Took about an hour for hubby to convince me to crawl up into bed.
Fresh water...grey tank...black tank... fridge.... all out weigh two people in a cab over. He told me if I was still concerned to just put my purse by the back door...that would keep it from tipping forward for sure.... (Naw, he didn't say anything about my purse. I thought of that on my own.)
I finally, gingerly crawled up into bed but made sure he stayed on his side. The fridge is on my side and I wasn't sure about tipping sideways.
So the very next day... he bought some chains and criss-crossed them between the legs and tightened them with a turn buckle thingy. He assured me that there was no way the TC could tip forward, sideways or go for a "walk" in the wind. Slept in it that way for about four months straight. No issues.
