I use the BA Dual Core pad. The most comfortable I have used in 35 years of camping.

I'm sure this your plan, but I can tell you from experience that you want it to fill the sleeve entirely which I believe is a rectangular pad for the Lost Ranger. Something like the Prolite 4 with its slight taper will leave gaps of uninsulated shell material that let cold in pretty bad.

I'd go with the Big Agnes Air Core uninsulated for temps to the upper 20ºs and the insulated version for anything colder. I just spent 9 days in my Lost Ranger looking for a ram for a pard with little to no problems and it got cold enough to freeze our 5gal water jug overnight!!

Good, but not with the normal measure of 'success'.
Yes.
Working on getting unpacked/laundered and then to the pictures.
