Using extension cord 50A

What are your experiences with using an extension cord?

We will be going to a CG next weekend, and it's a situation where you parallel park. I'm actually on the wrong side of the road this time, but still want to do a turn around so my door faces camp.

This will likely make my power cord to short.

I'd like to go purchase another 50A cord, and string them together. Is this ok to do, or looked down upon?
  • Ok to do but the shorter thet better...hooking up to an extension cord instead of directly to the pole will mean slightly less power going to the camper...the longer the extension cord the more the available power drops
