Fridge settings during travel

We're ready for our first trip in our new Travelite Idea I-18. SW Washington to McCall Idaho. About a 12 hr drive. One of my many questions is what is the best way to use the fridge. Load it here? wait till I get there? Settings to use during travel? We will be gone 4 nights. The fridge is a RM2354 (3 way model) If it is set on the DC mode, and plugged in to the tow vehicle, will cool ok during travel? If the tow vehicle engine is turned off for fuel or a break, will the fridge draw from both the house and vehicle battery? Should I turn on the propane and set the fridge on auto? Do I turn off the propane prior to refueling? Any help appreciated!

I set mine to run on gas the evening before I leave then I load up the fridge and travel while on gas. I only have a 2-way so if I had a dc option I would probably travel with the DC on to save a little gas (not that these burn much gas).
