We just upgraded our mattress. We bought the foam from:
https://www.thefoamfactory.com/
I'd suggest 1.5" - 2" Thick "Super Lux Foam" for the base (1.5" may work for you. I'm 6'4" and weight 240#). This will keep you from bottoming out on the platform (I hate that). Although it's a little too firm for sleeping.
Then laminate (with spray adhesive) to "Lux High Quality Foam". This foam is quite comfortable for sleeping but you may bottom out if used alone. When laminated to the "Super Lux Foam" you will have a nice comfortable sleeping surface that won't allow you to bottom out.
You then will have about 1" to 1.5" to put a "Memory foam" topper if desired.
If you go any thicker than 5" - 5.5" total, you may not be able to close your trailer. We went to 5.5" and had to adjust the roof lift arms to get the roof closed.
