I've been tenting in a number of tent sites, including Florida state parks, where the parking space for my car was not at the tent site, rather I parked in a grouped parking area, a short walk from the campsite. Parking sites were not necessarily level.
I've also been in other tent sites that would handle a full-size car (not that I ever had one, until recently buying a mid-length van) but would not have had any RV hookups. I've seen people back small campers (like VWs and A-frames) into the parking spaces; this in Oklahoma, not Florida.
If I were planning to use tent sites in public campgrounds, I would come prepared to do tent camping. In some parks tent camping is a general area without bounded individual sites.
