Traveling with the furnace running
Have a small fifth wheel, very little insulation, heading to FL in February from MA. I know some folks shut off the gas while traveling, I'm not of tha camp and have no problem running the fridge ...

You know that how? :h
Many of the posts were offered opinions to the op based on experience.
Sorry no offense intended but lets look at just your answers . I do not agree that the air is sucked out through the vents that are closed and with proper seals Sure you will lose some but not enough to make the difference you suggest. I also do not agree that the propane usage is enough to drain both propane tanks but maybe you are right my own experience in over 40 years of rving is that with 2 full 30 lb bottle or in the past a 30 Gal tank that I never came even close to using 1/2 of a bottle traveling 1200 miles over 4 days from Mi. to Fl. in January and February. So based on my personal information and experience I think running the furnace is a proper approach. I answered the OP's direct question. some of the answers I see here do not.
