Help replacing queen mattress in hybrid travel trailer

I have a 2003 Tahoe Lite 18DT travel trailer made by Thor. I just purchased the trailer, and it does not have a queen mattress. I am struggling with how to find a good replacement.

It is a unique mattress type, in that it needs to fold in an awkward place. I've attached a picture. In the picture, you can see that the closer section is longer than the distant section, and needs to fold or separate around 20" in.

Does anyone know where to go to find a replacement? Thank you

    Call Thor. If it's just foam you could have one made in 1 or 2 parts. Or try RV salvage yards.

    It’s been several years, but we found a company that made custom size mattresses of foam. We removed our queen bed and modified the bed platform to a king. We needed a split mattress. We got two foam mattresses that fit perfectly on the platform we built. It was not too expensive to purchase. Sorry I cannot remember the company name.

    I have the same trailer but didn't need a queen, so installed a thick twin. Easy to pull up when folding the tent- fits vertically w/o folding.
