-43 this morning with windchill (-32 without) I keep the furnace going as much as I can.
In all the years working for emergency services have never seen a incident that was caused by propane appliance at a gas station. Yes I would turn it off before getting fuel and light when done.
Have had incidents of people smoking when getting fuel (one guy tossed lit cigarette in some spilled gas), driving away with hose in car, spilling gas on tailpipe and a few that no one could figure out but not one RV.
This would be a great episode for the myth busters to see what it would take to cause a fire / explosion.
