My current rig, propane and fridge go off before it moves. I use freezer packs to keep stuff cold, which does work for 8-12 hour stretches.
Next motorhome, I'm looking at a rig with an inverter and/or a 12 volt line, so when on the road, I'll have the fridge run from the alternator or generator.
Propane is a safe fuel. Unlike gasoline, it has to build up to just the right amount before it goes boom. The main reason I turn it off is because when towing, the fridge is usually empty, and with a motorhome, might as well use the energy from the engine or battery and not bother using LP gas.
