Curtis,
May be someone on the forums can guide you to a airstream person in the Seattle area?
Which batteries were dead, the coach or the motor?
Depending on your model refer, you could run it on 12V, gas or 110V driving down the road.
I personally do not like to drive with the gas turned on, but many people do. If you do, make sure to turn it off, before pulling into a gas station.
The 110V option abviously only works with the generator running.
If I do not run the generator, I always use the 12V mode. You need good coach batteries and a flawless charging system, to run all day on 12V.
Never leave the refer on 12V for more than a refueling stop. With the motor not running, the refer will discharge the coach batteries in no time.
