Started camping in the 50's boy scouts with pup tents camping in the mountains.
Our family had an umbrellaa tent that most of us stayed in and the car was a nash with fold down seats for others , I was young and we had 5 kids , I don't remember who slept where, but I was in the tent.

It is better now with the wonderful tow vehicles available today.
