if a propane/electric fridge can't maintain colder than 40* imo theres something wrong w/ the fridge - even in texas/arizona (110*+) weather we've never had a problem.

the manufactures are moving to residential fridges as a mean to reduce cost & increase margin (having a few well publicized fires probably hasn't hurt either).

Face it MOST RV'er don't dry-camp anyway, its the racers who dry camp...and racers have largely purchased conversion trucks.

The more serious dry-campers want to use as little 120vac as possible.

In 5 years time I've consumed less than 15 gallons of propane. I guess I've topped the propane tank up THREE times (mostly cause i didn't have a feel for what i would consume)....none of those times has been difficult (at my local tractor supply store, 2x & once at a Flying J. even towing).
