As a past used camper dealer, RV user of forty years, and a retired electrical engineer, I can say without hesitation that what are known as and called "30 Amp RV's" (unlike some bigger rigs that may be 50 amp 4 wire) indeed "typically" use three conductor 10 gauge copper rubber covered Power Cords. Also, 25 feet is a reasonable length cord you would find on a 30 amp RV. The 30 amp 120 Volt RV plugs are 3 terminal (1 Ungrounded Conductor(HOT), 1 Grounded Conductor (Neutral), 1 Equipment Grounding Conductor)
NOTE: This assumes you need a cord for "120 V 30 amp" AS YOU STATED
NOTE: Inside the RV distribution panel YOU DO NOT BOND NEUTRAL TO GROUND, their busses are kept separate and electrically isolated and insulated off each other.
If voltage drop were an issue (some RV parks are notorious about low voltage at the pedestal) you could always use bigger wire
Sure Camping World and Adventure RV etc and others sell all you want, but I have seen good prices at Menards.

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
