OK to run furnace while traveling?
Do you all run your gas furnace while traveling down the road? Is there any problem with doing so? The electric heat is loud and doesn't work very well when it is this cold.

I turn mine off. When passing 18 wheelers coming or going there is typically a pressure wave that in many cases is strong enough to move the rv. That pressure wave will blow out the cabin heater. Yes there are safety devices to prevent reignition but what if it fails to work. Too easy just to put on a jacket or sweater
Not an issue at all. Doesn't matter if it get's blown out, the gas valve will close as soon as it's out. It will automatically re ignite when it can. Perfectly safe, working exactly as designed.
