The 50A cord would be the best choice. However, think about what you are going to plug it into. Even with adapters down to common household plugs which will work, remember that the house wiring to the plugs may only be 12G or less. A 6G cord plugged into an outlet with only 14G wire is the same as 14G all the way to the RV. An outlet in a shop should be a 12G/30A circuit. That is fine to keep power on a 50A rig for lights, battery charge, occasional TV use. One AC sometimes. Water heater?? if AC is off. Just don't get carried away and overload. Watch your plugs and connectors for overheating.
