    Yesterday, I needed to put some air in my steer tires, and the first five truck stops all had vandalized air hoses. What kind of jerks are stealing all the air chucks???

    Buy your own inflator hose from inside a truck stop and air chuck. I set up mine with a quick disconnect and have a nice digital, Blue Point inflator.

    I'm having eighties flashbacks now. My forehead was less visible then.

    It's one of life's trade-offs: the more your forehead shows, the less your belt buckle does.

    The trouble is finding a chuck that doesn't leak more air than it's putting in if the fuel island actually has air.
