I prefer to use electric due to if you were in an accident the possibility of one of the gas lines being damaged and causing more problems or fire, that's why I always run electric while I am towing my trailer.

So, you purge your LP lines each day? Seems like kind of a pain. |

We travel each day and usually only spend one night at each campground. I travel with my fridge running on propane mostly and sometimes with 12 volt. |

I looked for a beating a dead horse emoji but the gif ones would not paste into the text box.
This is a dispute that will never be resolved. It's like competing expert witnesses in a products liability case who are 180ยบ in opposition to one another. Each says the other guy is proposing dangerous activity and each cherrypicks his evidence to support his own conclusions. In the last analysis, both are probably full of hot air. But I still like my idea of mounting a sailboat wind generator on the fore or aft, depending on the aesthetics, of the roof of the Pod. Who cares if it really works. It would really look incredibly cool.

How many birds would you hack to pieces with your whirly gig? Just kidding. It probably would slice a finger or two.

I just returned from a trip to Montana, drove over 1000 miles (16 hours total driving time) with my RPod 177 refrigerator on propane while traveling, and had not one issue with it.

How many birds would you hack to pieces with your whirly gig? Probably none. I have yet to hit a bird with the TV or Pod since they seem to fly clear of moving vehicles and the wind generator would not likely add to the threat. The birds that get nailed by wind turbine blades are being killed by the big ones. If the little sailboat sized wind generators were killing birds, marinas would be filled with the carcasses of dead seagulls. There doesn't seem to be a problem in that regard. And like I said, if it's a game bird, as long as you serve it in a nice sherry sauce.....

I love all the responses. They might be boring to the long-timers, but for this newbie, they are both entertaining and informative! Even the sarcastic ones...
