- Most Thor RVs have an outside TV that is plugged into a GFI outlet. And on my Vegas, the Fridge and outside TV are on the same side of the RV
- So you could easily access the GFI outlet under/behind the cabinets, plug-in an extension cord, and run it to the rear of the Fridge

This is an easy work-around without changing the interior wiring.

On my Vegas, I’ve added an integrated inverter that powers the Fridge plug. So I feel your pain. I understand the hassle you describe.

But, as previously mentioned in this thread...while driving many prefer to power the Fridge thru the inverter. It saves propane, and is safer.
And, while driving, your house batteries are always charging.

You do not want or need your fridge to be on a GFI circuit. There is no NEC code requiring a fridge to be on a GFI circuit.
