i just want to be clear - the point is NOT "don't use the fridge while driving", the point IS (or was) to flip the fridge over to DC mode while driving.......i (personally) don't consider using the LP while driving to be safe or necessary considering the fact that DC is an option.  i mean, why waste your LP - DC is capable of maintaining the temp that the LP produced.
