Keep in mind the GM 14-50 NEMA system is really 100A available as there are 2 120V legs coming in at 50A (technically dual 40A main in most GMC panels). Therefore 50A is not 20A more than Coachmen 30A (simple math) but instead has 70A more available on the cord set. Even if the GMC Main breaker is a dual 40A, 80-30= 50A more than Coachmen TT-30 setup. Hence the big disparity and realization that the GMC 14-50 is more than you could ever need. Glad they went with it as you can easily addapt it to TT-30 at an old camp and then to Edison if need be.
