I have always done this while on long road trips.  Primarily because my
wiring is goofy (I need to fix it) and the aux battery gets drained if I run
it off 12v.   I shut it off during refueling and then restart it after
pulling away from the pumps.

In 1000's of miles of driving like this, I have never had the fridge blow
out, or anything else unusual happen.  Maybe I am just lucky...
