As long as its protected at 100a your fine. Keep in mind though that of you draw too much you'll have to go to the main panel and reset the 100a breaker.

Is the new home all-electric (heat)?

Or are there some gas appliances involved?

it's a mobile home, and a bag@ss one if it's got a 200A service.

We install mobile homes with 200 Amp services all the time.

All-electric units.

Some folks do not like "gas" in their house ....
