Research others of the same model and then subtract 10% and add $200 so you can have a "bargaining" drop and then figure the time of year into your decision. Not so easy.

50 amp for 30a trailer

We are heading to a park that has a 50 amp at the site we have. Will an adapter be sufficient? Are there any risks to my 30 amp cord, trailer, connections, or any fuses?

Don't know about yours but mine is the same. No power to the plugs when on 12v. If that is all it is I would say that's normal. If your interior lights work then bingo. Try your slide too.
