Fridge running while refueling

Run fridge on propane while traveling for over twenty years, no problem. Should turn fridge off when refueling,... When I remember.

Dennis, we also have a 203SLC Sandstorm.. bought ours about a year and a half ago. Never had a problem running the fridge while traveling or fueling. Make sure your tires are more than 2ply before you go off road.. and make sure they are properly inflated.. trailer tires are high pressure.. between 55 and 65 lbs.. our tires were only two ply from the dealer.. and we had to replace them within a year..

We love ours too.. just the right size for our ATVs and my wife and I.

Have fun!
