Sure, that is what I always do when leaving from home. Been doing it that way for years.
All I need to do is unplug from the house voltage, check to see that the frig. switched over to propane, hook up the 5th wheel trailer cables, & go. Everything else was done before time.
I don't leave the landing gear down that night either. I'm pretty sure the truck springs can take it.
There have even been a few times (very few), that I spent the night in a rest stop/parking lot. I certainly did not disconnect then. And I do not recommend trying to get a nights sleep there either. Too much noisy activity going on.
