Excellent post.
Might get me out of a tent, just to try.

A comfortable and insulated sleeping pad is critical. Spend as much as you can tolerate to get a good one. I have one of these for bike camping:

For car camping we now use cots with sleeping pads on top of them. No messing around when it comes to comfortable sleeping!!

Somebody else mentioned silk sleeping bag liners. I agree. Packs very small and adds 10 degrees or so to the bag rating if you need it.
