I hate it because if you are getting a tire replaced, they have to stop working on you to go check on the driver too lazy to pretrip. One day the tire guy did that twice while I was trying to get a tire replaced so I pulled off and left.
Do you use Love's TirePass?

Do the loves have shops now? I don't recall any that was anything but a fuel stop, maybe I didn't stop at enough of them.

I guess I'm old school. I just use a handheld tire gauge and my glad hand air, if needed.
QuietStorm and D.Tibbitt Thank this. -
Since moving to Alaska I generally keep which ever truck I am using in the shop. I have plumbed quick connects to the air tanks, so I don't have to let it build up air when I crank it, so I never use the glad hands for that purpose.
I have intended to also plumb in some on my trailers, so I could just carry a short hose, but never got around to it.D.Tibbitt Thanks this. -

five bucks to run your truck across and get a full reading also have your tread depth and everything you can't beat it. if you're too lazy to do it and I'll admit sometimes I am after 30 years of doing this gig sometimes I just don't feel like getting on stage and playing so I'll be more than happy to roll that thing right across aatire pass..companies can use it for drivers that don't like to do it either even the new guys it makes it a lot easier it's a $5 reimbursement you can't beat it could prolong your tire life a whole lot longer because many don't check their air pressure I know that for a fact like I said I'm one anymore now I'm getting older and crotchety and sometimes I don't want to so the convenience is great..check air pressure tread depth consider even or uneven wear so it's like bada bing bada boom a fiver and done! I've had great luck with it once a week I use it I don't really do the trailers too much because I pull so many different trailers but as far as my truck I treat like my own and I'm more than happy to use it I think it's great...

Unless you're starting the day at TirePass / Love's, your pressures aren't going to be correct.QuietStorm, flood, Trucker Kev Paid Tourist and 2 others Thank this. -
They should be like Sonic carhops check tires, bring out your McDonald’s and then wipe your booty for you for your next on the spot delivery. Or you can just drop it on the pavement like most do.
Never used it myself, got a tire pressure gauge that apparently they stopped selling?
