Missed part of the question, the Clam is a piece of cake for one (short) person to take down. My only suggestion would be to watch a couple of youtube videos to see how it's done (the first move is crucial)
Lee-Ann,
In the storage bag, ours measures about 6 feet. It won't lay down flat on your truck's rear seat, but will fit on the floor of your TC.
Home unpacking.
Just took a few pictures although full spec's. are in my opening post.
My wife is 5', 2" and has no problem due to the pull straps that are attached to the screen room.

We have a safety incentive program at work and for every month we work without injury (or killing a foreman) we get a prize. The prize gets bigger with every consecutive month that goes by without injury. Late last fall the company gave everyone one of those clam screen tents. It seemed very well made but fairly bulky and going into winter did not hit the top of the best gift ever list at work. We joked that with enough duct tape you could convert it to an icefishing tent. A few people were able to get a store credit at a local fleet farm store for them but word got out and they were flooded with employee's trying to trade in the tents so the store put a stop to that. I re-gifted mine to my sisters family for Christmas but with over 600 employees where I work , northern Minnesota has a bunch of those floating around for sale or tucked in the back of garages somewhere
Taking our new Clam with us today to Yosemite for a week. This will be the maiden flight for our Clam. Can't wait to try it out. BTW, we bought three panels also - looks like Red's panels are solid - no window. Ours came with a large roll up window in each panel.

Right on. Enjoy.
Interesting about the "new style(?)" panels. Would love a picture upon your return.
Have a great trip! 
You might even catch sight of a moonbow -

Jeff - Big smile on Sue's face when we popped the clam open in "32" seconds!! LOL. Have a great campsite in Upper Pines. I'll get a pic posted if the signal here will allow. Burr.... It is a chilly 33 here this morning with clear skies!
Mike
Watched someone set one up at a softball tournament we attended last summer in Virginia, and I was impressed. Then I watched them take it down.... They were probably doing something wrong, but I sure wish I'd had a video camera. There's little doubt I could have made serious money on AFV!
Awesome Mike!
Would love to see pictures of the screen room, panels, & your site.
This is in Yosemite 4/14. No panels on the Clam then. I'll send more later with the panels and windows. Photo didn't upload. Ugh!
Mike -
Are you home yet?
Yes, I'd like to see the new-style panels, but mostly want to see the site you had in Yosemite Valley as well as any other Yosemite pic's. that you took. 
Home today from Yosemite. Here are a couple pics of the clam and our site. Upper Pines #83.

Looks good Mike.
Did you time yourself this morning when you took down the screen room?
So we bought a clam mag six pack screen tent; we've wanted one for a long time. It was delivered by FEDEX this past week while we were out of town, and we got our first look at it when we returned today. We were dismayed to see that it had been delivered with half the box packaging torn away. We were further dismayed when we tried to set it up, and found that one of the panels had clearly been assembled and sewn wrong so that it couldn't possibly open. I'm sure every manufacturing company has occasional assembly line quality control issues. The story may still turn out well. We immediately contacted Amazon this afternoon, and they have given us a delivery date for a replacement tent on Tuesday (72 hours from now). They've also scheduled a pick-up for FEDEX to come get the defective one we have now and return it to the manufacturer.

Second time appears to be charm. The replacement tent came with the box intact. We took it out today and opened it in less than two minutes. It only took that long because we opened it in our living room and it filled up the room. Everything seems to be in order, and this tent is just what we were looking for.
It's beyond me why the manufacturer couldn't send us a non-defective tent the first time (it was obvious the first tent was defective the moment we tried to set it up). That's definitely a reflection on manufacturing QC. We'll move beyond that, however, and enjoy what we now have.
Don
Because the manufacturer(marketer) never saw it because probably made in China for them. Sent to their warehaouse and ship to you

You may be right.
Don
But now.............. You will really enjoy the clam. Good oversized bag, easy set up, privacy or very open, just a great versatile shelter. We love ours.
Don -
Sorry that I missed your first post when you received the defective screen room.
Glad to hear that the replacement is all good and functioning properly.
