I'd choose the 50 amp camper, and I'd choose the 50 amp campsite.
We camped with our previous TT on a 50 amp campsite and with the dogbone adaptor, had no problems with a 30 amp trailer.
We currently have a 50 amp 5er now, and it's currently plugged into a 30 amp power source at home now. I've not installed a 50 amp service yet.
The difference between the 30 and 50 usage? So far, really ... nothing. We've not had to run both air conditioners on the new 5er yet at all. We always were aware of our power usage on all of our 30 amp TT's, so power management is just a way of life for us. So, even though we have a 50 amp camper, being plugged into the 30 amp service is no different than when we were at campgrounds with 50 amp service.
