refrigerator on while traveling?

Always on when traveling.

Never turn ours off from the time it comes out of storage until it is returned to storage. Did that with our TT from 2006 on and now with our FW. Never a problem.

Yes, you can leave it running. I leave it running when I get diesel, too. My fridge is on the curb side, fuel fillup on the road side, and I am usually on the outside pumps if I am fueling up, so my fridge is no where near any possible vapors. Also, gasoline vapors are heavier than air, so it will take a lot of vapors to get anywhere near the fridge.

Ours is on 12V when traveling. Not sure that is an option for yours.

Ours is on...can't do much good as a refrigerator if it's off and not cold.

If your refrigerator can run as fast as you drive, then it can run all it wants.

Enough of the bad jokes. Yes, you can leave it running. I leave it running when I get diesel, too. My fridge is on the curb side, fuel fillup on the road side, and I am usually on the outside pumps if I am fueling up, so my fridge is no where near any possible vapors.

And probably the majority of those who do, if they have diesel trucks, leave it on while fueling, especially if they are at diesel only pumps or the fridge is not close to a gas pump.

This described me to a "T". My camper comes home from storage 1-2 days before a trip and the fridge gets turned on. It stays on until we get home and the fridge is unloaded.
