    seen a line of cars in SD following like a bunch of NASCAR cars at Daytona behind a RV. They couldn't see the gator in the road that was blocking about 1/3 of the left lane.

    All I could think is watch this accident happen.

    Cars scattered everywhere with brake lights galore. Some even taking the ditch at 75+.

    I don't check my tires daily with a tire gauge.

    But I do check them every stop with one of these....

    I put the stick to mine daily. Too dang expensive to be negligent about tire pressure.

    Drive thru Vegas on a Nice hot day the 4 wheelers lose tires faster than the trucks and oh yeah and half the time they get upside down and kill themselves. Truck recaps on the road should be the least of their problems if i was them i would be worried bout them blowing a tire at 80 mph and taking out a family
