Tom & Sherry, we leave the Kansas City area in (usually) subfreezing weather in early January and head south. Since we will stay a night or two in the Montana before getting into warmer weather we just do as Bill Hill suggested and leave the furnace thermostat on its lowest setting. I think that's 45 on our thermostat. We've never had frozen pipes while driving and have not noticed an inordinate amount of propane usage. Some folks don't like the idea of running the furnace on the road so for them I'd suggest blowing out the pipes like Skip suggested. Also, be sure to shut off the furnace before fueling.
