been using one for years.

 

I have been using a Coleman propane stove for almost...... 20 years now. Wow how time flies.

 

Yep, we carry little propane torches for thawing congealed product- I keep extra bottles in th cab, and have never had a problem during an inspection, even with an a-hole cop. Also have 100 lb propane tank on the side of the truck to run a heater for the product.

 

okay, my $.02 even if regs allow such the burner would have to be completely shrouded in a metal of some kind and it better be good due to the things that it could contact ~ really thinking about this so thanks for starting the thread

 

i got mine from walmart. only been used once so far. LOL.

i hate cooking. and usually too tired anyways.

if you can, walmar will always be your financial friend over a truckstop. i usually don't buy anything but drinks. and fuel.

 

actually the law states that there may not be an open flame in operation at any time a vehicle is moving. you can only use it when the vehicle is sitting. to not allow any sort of combustion on a car or truck would make all illegal just by the powerplant. read in here folks, there are still some steam powered cars in operation today, as jay leno can tell you. but the flame is inside a chamber and therefore isolated from causing a fire. so yes, you can have a propane, butane, methane, charcoal grill, etc. just don't be using it while moving. heck, i get by with one of those little lunchbox sized ovens. even bakes bread.

 

I have a coleman stove with a 1lb propane burner and a grill that runs off of propane 1lb tank, nothing like over charging drivers for some grilled pork steaks once they smell it they will pay anything lol..
