Got one on my wish list today

50 amp electric extension cord, 35 feet long. It was ONLY $196.00 before tax.this gives me 70 feet of cord now. Maybe I can now leave some of those 30 amp cords home now. Got it from my local dealer parts store. That sucker sure is heavy.

    I have one of those.. And yes it is.

    My Wish List now looks like thi$$$$$$$$$$$$$ as I have a slide out floor in need of replacement ($1K+) and my fridge failed (Just under 1K) That's the bad news

    The good news: Just checked my primary bank.. Got the $$$$$$
  • I’ve had to use an extension cord many times over the years too. I got tired of fighting the stiff 50A cords as well and also went the SOOW route a couple of years ago and have never looked back! :B
  • Good to have. Seems pricey depending upon quality. Amazon Prime 30' 50A Camco $108 delivered. Surely not SOOW.

    Thats a great pick up Dutch,,

    I made my own earlier this year out of a 50 ' SOOW cord.. I made a 35' and a 15' extension cord..
