I always carry three cones for emergency situations while on the road. I use them behind my rig if I have to stop along the shoulder of the road for more than a few minutes. What's been your experienc...

What kind of cones are you talking about? Large, non-folding traffic safety cones with reflective stripes are 3 feet tall and are far more visible than triangles. But, they are huge and heavy.
The collapsible cones are kind of iffy quality wise and not very heavy duty. But if taken care of they do work.
If you are talking about the little 12 inch orange cones, then the triangles are easier to deal with and more visible. But... the little cones might help with backing into a campsite, and possibly putting them by a hitch (or under the hitch) to help prevent people from running into it.
As to campground use... have you looked at the "snowplow stakes"? The thin stakes with reflective tops. They are usually about 3 feet tall, only about 3/8 inch diameter, and can easily be stored out of the way. You do have to drive them into the ground a few inches, though.
Whatever works for you.
I carry the big traffic cones in my pickup truck for use at accident scenes (I'm in the fire department), but haven't used them while camping.
