Pulled the Trigger on a Grand Design Reflection 303RLS
So I've been lurking in the fifth wheel forum for a while, and now can actually join in!
Have been looking at fifth wheels ever since I upgraded my TV, and finally decided it was time to make a move. So I cleaned up the 2012 Coleman (my handle origination), did the roof preventative maintenance and listed it on Craigslist, pricing it after researching competing models.
It sold in less than 24 hours at my price, the new owner picked it up over the weekend. Soooo, with that, we went to our dealer the same day, and by chance they had the model we were interested in, and had toured a few times, along with others.
We went with a price range in mind and were ready to walk - got a reasonable offer from them, then countered with 30% off their sticker price, and the cost of a front bedroom AC installed. They countered half the AC cost, so we took the deal, and will get delivery mid month.
So - now to my (first) question. I currently have 30 amp service at my house - used it for the previous TT. Can I use a pigtail to connect 50 amp fifth wheel cord to my 30 amp plug and just run one AC - or do I need to upgrade the plug to 50?
