I bought a (used) side tent, but have not set it up yet.   I am wondering
whether it is going to be worth the space and effort- guess I'll find out
- but appreciate any insights!

Seems like I am running out of space in the van when every thing is
packed up for the family of 4.  Of course, spares and tools take up half
of the under-seat storage area!
