Crack Down on 50 Amp Rigs Using 30 Amp Sites
I don't know how long this has been going on but I learned today that some RV parks including the Washington/Pittsbugh KOA I had booked has a policy that if your rig has 50 amp service, you can't use ...

Back on the original topic, if they will not allow a 50 amp rig into a 30 amp site, they should not allow 30 amp rigs in 50 amp sites.
In case they underload the electrical system?
Maybe because they inadvertently drive up profits?
That's one side to it. But the other side is that if 50-amp RVs are restricted to 50-amp sites, there's no availability if the 50-amp sites are full. If there are any 30-amp RVs in the 50-amp sites, those are spaces that could have been available, and the RV park would have made more money by having two RVs paying for sites instead of just one.
A similar thing happens with size. I'm not advocating requiring all RVs to be in the smallest site they will fit in, but it's irksome to need a space 35 feet long and not have any available because much smaller RVs are using them, while smaller sites are open.
Basically, there's no good answer.
