But it would be simple to just turn off the breaker, plug in the truck, check the lights, disconnect from the truck, and turn the breaker back on. No need to unplug the power cord from the pedestal.
Thats a good question. While we travel on vacation, the overnights at KOA's or campgrounds, I've never unplugged from the truck (unless to get level or shop) in 20 years of towing.
