Welcome to our TM group! I see the forum helped you make a decision to buy, as it did for us.
There are many posts on using the refrigerator on the road, but frankly we didn't all last year. Someone's post gave me the idea to just put the food in a cooler and load the refrigerator in the campground. We plug in and cool the refrigerator overnight, unplug to leave and plug in again at the campground. Then we found the refrigerator cooled quickly enough with the cool food from the ice chest that I didn't really need to precool. I put frozen blocks (such as the blue ones in the camping section of the store) in the ice chest. Then while in camp the thawed block is put in the freezer section of the refrigerator to be ready to put back in the ice chest for the next long drive. It works fine for us (just two of us and our best friend).
