Two people in DeSoto Texas were recently killed by Propane gas and fumes
generated by an LP powered floor polisher. They were polishing the floor
in a giant high school gym, limited ventilation but a giant area.
Hopefully your body will stay frozen until spring after using an LP fired
heater in your van, they could possibly have an open coffin funeral for
you.
