A 3 wire romex (3 + ground) may not cost much more than the 2 wire romex. So I ran 10 awg 3 wire to my RV plug on a 30 amp double pole breaker with a 50 amp RV plug. My current RV is 30 amp so I use an adapter to plug in. But if I ever up size the RV I have two 30 amp lines feeding it instead of one. And, that should really be plenty for home storage/usage. 8 awg may not be much more and would provide 40 amps.
