No. The RV is protected by its inside 30 amp breaker.

Since you are in Texas, as I am, I would recommend an RV with 50 amp and two A/Cs.

50 amp. More is always better

50 amp... Too limited with 30 amp

Would you make a video of the tongue test and post it? :)

Are you asking whether I'd buy and RV with 30A or 50A or if I'd rent and RV spot with 30A or 50A?

I have the 30 amp plug and can run most things at the same time but will only run one of my two air conditioners at a time. 30 amps has about 3500 watts available, 50 amp system can handle something like 12,000 watts.

Unless I am using the tongue test to see if the circuit is live, 50A service is my choice. I would chose it either in the coach I am looking to purchase, or in the site I am looking to set up in. It offers much more flexibility.
