I would love to get a fridge with a real compressor. I haven't done it yet for two reasons: I don't want to lose the capability of running the fridge on propane. And, I can't make myself toss out a perfectly working appliance. When the 2-way fridge eventually fails, that will be the time to decide.
The real-life reason that I don't run propane appliances while driving on the highway? Because I haven't been able to convince my wife that it is safe. So, we turn off the main propane valve when we are on the road. No gas cooking, fridge on AC only, no water heating, and no furnace until we stop somewhere.
