50 Amp vs 30 Amp

50amp? sure, it's great, but for just parking next to your home... not needed, unless you think you'll be living in it one day : )
Definitely go with the 50 amp. There is not a huge cost difference in the installation. Running the both air-conditioners connected to a 30 amp line will cause them to run warmer and this will shorten their life. It will be less expensive and less of a headache to put in the 50 amp line now, then to change your air-conditioners later.
