I often cool my fridge down the night prior. I have found that at least in the cooler Michigan climate, the fridge will stay safe (not running) for at least a 4 hour trip.

I have an un-level driveway as well, so I deploy my hydraulic levelers to get the rig level.

I carry a cheap spirit level with me, and have calibrated it (put tick marks on it) for both 3Deg and 6Deg, so I know if the coach level is safe enough to run the fridge.

Its my understanding that you can damage the fridge if you run it further than the 3deg/6deg limit - at least if you run it that way for an hour or more. Seems the ammonia can build crystals in the lines when doing so. I have not tempted fate though to see if this is true or not, as I don't want to risk buying a new fridge.
