Subject:      Propane powered fridge while driving (?)
Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Well I found propane at a local RV center..... and it was only 2$USD /
3$CAN for the fill-up.  Wow!

Anyways, I'm ready to hit the road.  One thing, however....... I was
reading that increased electrical consumption can lower fuel economy.  I'm
wondering then...... is it possible to run the fridge on propane the entire
time while driving?  Is this dangerous?  Alternatively, does fridge
operation make a big difference in gas bills over long distances?

Thanks for any insight.....

Shawn.
