Gas or electric? Which cools fridge faster
Or doesn't it matter. Forgot to plug it in and leaving in the morning. Hot Rod reunion, Bakersfield Ca. Woo Hoo

To answer the OP's question my experience is that propane generates cold more quickly than AC. Since we spend most of our nights without hookups LP is the primary source for refrigeration however....
The night before we leave on a trip the C gets parked in front of the house. I plug into AC from the garage, run the frig/freezer and in a couple of hours the freezer has frozen the ice cube trays and the frig is cooling down nicely.
We have 4 large and 4 small Blue Ice blocks that get frozen solid in the home freezer the night before we leave. I place half of these in our Igloo cooler (got one that will hold ice up to 3-4 days), which is filled with beverages and the other half goes into the frig for the drive (no I do not run with the LP on while driving).
After a full day of driving the drinks are ice cold as is the frig and the ice in the freezer does not even come close to melting. The key is to stay out of the frig/freezer as much as possible. For the rest of the trip I place half of the Blue Ice in the freezer every night and in the morning switch that batch out with the ones that were in the Igloo. Between the Blue Ice and two ice cube trays we never need to buy ice and all of our food and beverages stay frosty cold.
Works for me!
