Hi All;
Just picked up a fiver and planning a shakedown stay in the driveway. Our first trip will be to our property that has an unlivable house. It has a conveniently located dryer outlet. Is there an adapter offered that will adapt my 30 amp shore cord to the dryer outlet? Or do I need to make one up, or is this not recommended?

For Heaven's sake do NOT do that. Just because the dryer outlet appears similar to an RV 30A outlet does not make it so. The dryer outlet is a household 240VAC outlet. A similar looking RV 30A socket is 120VAC. If you tried plugging your RV into that house dryer outlet you would cause serious damage to your RV.
