I get along just fine with 30 amps and would rather not wrestle with the heavier shore cord. I've got a 50 amp cord for backup generator power in the house, and it's a beast compared to the 30 amp cord.
YOU understand the limitations. MOST RV'ers have NO clue. I am on the Sales/Service side of the RV. You have no idea how many times customers come in with complaints about overloading their 30 amp RV. Get the 50 amp service and then just use a 50 to 30 adapter with a 30 amp extension cord. It is BETTER to have MORE power to utilize than to NOT have that extra power and then grumble about it. Doug
