Keeping Things Cold on the Road
Interested to know how long things in refrigerator stay cold while traveling and if anything in the freezer thaws out if we're on, say, an 8 hour road day. Just bought a TT and haven't used it yet.

I would recommend that regardless of whether you run your fridge while travelling or not, that you put a thermometer inside the fridge section so you know for certain what is going on in there. On a hot day, a fridge that has warmed up to 55 degrees will still feel "cold enough" to most people. But, that's actually well into the danger zone for meats and dairy products.

Whatever you do, remember that food safety is important too. It would be a shame to make yourself or a member of your family sick (or worse) from eating spoiled food because you felt running the fridge on the road was a safety hazard. Preventing food-borne illnesses and deaths isn't just the responsibility of those big evil agri-businesses. The consumer is responsible for practicing safe food handling procedures as well.

If you continue with this logic, you'll confuse the conspiracy theorists.
