So I have Sim cards in 3 phones and 1 in the Winegard Connect. What would Pepwave with 2 more Sim cards provide on top of that? Curious, not a network engineer here.

Yes. Our '18 Hurricane 31S purchased from Total Value in May of 2017 has been completely trouble free. Spent many hours and $ on improvements and maintenance but that goes with any RV, IMO.

EZ oil changes

Install a Fumoto drain plug/ valve
Cut a plastic litre bottle and use it to catch the old filter
Use a cheap flannel backed plastic tablecloth to catch the inevitable drips.
