My wife and I are new to rv'ing and we pick up our Grand Design Reflection 26RL in 4 weeks. This model is wired for 50 amps so it has the capability of adding a second AC unit. We primarily camp in the mountains in Canada and will never go to the trouble of adding a second AC unit. The one we are getting won't even get used that mush as it tends to bother my wife's allergies anyway.
The unit will come with a 50 amp shore power cord and I want to also add a surge protector. If I know I will never need 50 amps for 2 AC's, should I just tell the rv dealer to keep his big heavy 50 amp cord and give me a 30 amp instead, since he is getting a good deal on this trade then I will tell him to give me a good price to install a 30 amp surge protector (not a 50).
Does this sound like a good plan or am I missing something critical and I should just stay with a complete 50 amp system (cord and surge protector)? Also, in case it matters we are not going to be full timing...
Thanks for any advice you may have.
