who dry camps with residential fridge?
I'm thinking about replacing my rv fridge with a residential model, mine is going on 12 years and still works but I go to AZ a lot in 100+ degree weather, I mostly stay with full hookups but 3-5 times...

The only kind Wind Machine I would even think about being mounted on top of a RV would be the Vertical Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT)... I read about one that looked like the heat turbo fans on house roofs made for RV's'
Looked something like this unit...
Being a vertical type you would have the generator down inside the RV somewhere driven by a long shaft... They make magnetic type bearings that have almost zero resistance for turning shafts. You can turn a shaft using a couple of these type bearings with your hand and it will turn for days haha...
The BLADE TYPE turbines make alot of noise...
These all have to be in zone where you have a sustained 5-7MPH wind going all the time. Great for Texas-Oklahoma Area and around the mountains or sea shores... The Vertical Axes type mounted on top of the RV going 60MPH would be great too...
