Considering buying a Big Horn with dual AC system, will it run in 30 amp services?

Not from personal experience, but have heard of others running two on 30 amp. I'm sure you'll get varying opinions/experiences, but if nothing else with big draw is being used, it is possible, as long as they don't start at the same moment. Everything switched to propane, no microwave use.

Dual A/C SHOULD come with 50A system

30A is OK for ONE 15K A/C unit provided you don't run water heater on electric or microwave when A/C is on etc.

30A service......1 hot leg with 3600W available

50A service.......2 hot legs each with 6000W availability total of 12,000W

So with 50A rig and using 30A service.....1 A/C at time and watch/manage the rest of AC components
Is it time for your medication or mine?

Depends!
Some rigs come with power management that runs one air unit then switches to the other.
