What, no European conversion plug?

My last 5er came with a 30' 50 amp cord, I cut it in half, removed the Marine twist end, added male/female ends to both valves & with the adapter pictured could use either 15' piece, which in most sites was all is that was needed & much lighter than a 30', or the 25' extension I had previously purchased.

So in total I had 55' of cord + 1' for the adapter + another 1' of surge protector/EMS.

Like sourdough I use an odd length 30amp. Seller on Ebay sells cord by the foot. Asked if he could do the 50 connector on 30 amp cord. He said yes so I had him make a 35 footer. We use it for all our travels until we get to our 3 month Arizona stay at which time I hook up with the 50 amp because at some point we will need both A/Cs.

Would be this one but it was less than $70 on Feebay

Really? I don't think so. We have more urgent matters to settle like plain or peanut m&m's, coke or pepsi, almond joy or mounds......

It seems like parks are doing a much better at locating services in recent years. When we started snowbirding nine years ago a second cord or hose was needed frequently. In the past couple of years I can only think of once or twice when a second twenty five foot cord was needed. For water hose I use a ten and twenty foot which are sometimes combined plus an extra twenty five just in case. Fifteen foot sewer hose comes up being too short on a regular basis.

Twenty six foot Outback with water at rear, electric over axles and sewer in front of axles.

Why pay for an Almond Joy and only get a Mounds ????

As for color: Anything but Creech Brown... Those that were "in the era" know perfectly well about that color.....

I'm guessing your truck is RR? I like emerald green but my car is RR and bends necks when it is clean...
