western is correct. Although the massive upgrade can probably be spread over 20+ years and may not start for 10. Just as we have 30amp and 50amp sites now there will be a few added with a second 50 amp EV charging connection. Virtually zero are needed today.

Not that easy to spread an upgrade over multiple years. Beyond the major problem of having construction going on continually, where do you start and stop? Do the best sites get the charging upgrade and need to be kept empty in case an EV rig comes around. Or do you relegate the EVs to less desirable locations so the best sites are available for the more common internal combustion rigs? Will you price the EV sites much higher due to the higher electrical costs and construction costs or will you pass the costs on to everyone including those who don't use either the sites or the extra electricity keeping the price increases more modest? What about groups traveling together when one has an EV rig? Do you break up the group or use all the EV sites for one EV? Plus construction of a new area will often require crossing a completed area increasing costs. Lots of issues to consider.

As said how did we every get to 50 amps from 15 or 30? Same transition will take place. Those that came before us must have been a lot smarter because they made it work.

Like what do you do now when all the 30s are full and a 30 RV does not want to pay extra for 50? Or a 50 shows up and all you have are 30a sites? The solution already exists.
