Check your gas mileage when running the fridge on 12v versus not. You may be surprised.
I assume you mean that the gas milage would go down due to higher draw on the alternator? What kind of difference are we talking?
I havent looked at the fridge in my brougham yet. But I would like to be able to run it on 12V while driving.
I can't say for sure. My suggestion is based on the shadetree 12v generator I rigged up when we were first living off grid.
Leeann indicated I'm comparing apples to oranges. So, I'd rely on her first hand experience rather than my indirect comparison.
