a request to do this or that is just that a request. requests are neither constitutional or unconstitutional...they're just requests. you said no. end of story. if they had pushed their way inside to search without probable cause then that may be unconstitutional. if you suffer retaliation for that answer then it's time for an atty otherwise have a nice day.
Except that this is already a decided case by the U.S. Supreme Court decision in California vs. Carney case, the a motorhome, while it is similar to a house/home, is part of the "automobile exemption" can can be subject to search without need of a warrant.
Look closer at the case your quoting and you will see that there was obviously probable cause which was clearly lacking in the OP case. Haven't a clue whether Calif could deny entry to the RV who refused but given they let this one through I kinda doubt.
