It may sound like a luxury, but if you're used to sleeping with one, having to lay flat while camping could be very uncomfortable.

Has anyone here done it? I see some new model trailers coming with adjustable beds!

Looking into adding a simple adjustable bed base to the bed platform. I'm betting a lighter weight model with removable legs could be added with minimal alteration. FB marketplace is full of them.

Some models, if the legs were removed, the motor on the bottom might stick out a bit, making it so the base isn't able to lay flat. Adding a little hight with some wood, would fix that.

Sleeping with your head and leg slightly elevated is so much more comfortable and helps with those of us who suffer from the dreaded GERD.

Looks like this

This one legs are removable and folds in half for easy moving. I have a bedroom door in my model trailer, so that makes the thought of getting it inside, even easier. A lightweight version is approximately 90 pounds.
