Pilot installing tire pressure sensors at fuel pumps. Sends info to your company

All the Trucks I drove: Steers 105, Drives 100-105. Trailers were set: 95-105 depending upon freight weight.
EVERY TIME New Tires were installed (Steers, Drives, Trailer), the folks installing NEVER got the pressures correct = S. O. P. (standard operating procedure).
I checked next day to discover near 20 pounds LOW, so out came the side box 50' red air line, to correct.
I NEVER deflated Tires (unless of course air system was stronger than the usual truck stop pressure).
I checked mornings before depart, yes, even in inclement, frigid weather.
Only ever had 2 drive tires explode, same tractor within a 3 month timeline (one south-western N.Y state, other, Florida panhandle). Owner ran re-cap Drives, but real Steer tires.

I've seen 130 p.s.i. a few times on steers and drives. Never deflated.

I ALWAYS avoided the Love's Tires Check Lane at Fuel Islands!!
No Point when Gauging HOT Tires.

CHEERS!!​

 

I have a "T" connection behind my driver seat coming from the compressor. One side is connected to the seat to adjust it, the other is a fitting for blowing air (to clean out the truck I suppose). So I have a question...When you need to fill your tires in the morning and the truckstops don't have air lines (most of them don't, or if they do, they are broken or weak), do you connect your 50-ft hose to the gladhand? Or do I connect it to the inside line behind my seat?

you hook to the red gladhand

 

your gonna get 100 different responses to this. 120 psi can hold a massive amount of weight which I’m sure your not carrying.
Personally I run 85psi max on my drives which according to Continental’s tire inflation chart is over 34000 pounds. Everyone runs different pressures.

 

How the heck are they going to report anyone?

Will they report on me to myself?

Should I slap my own hand for too much or too low psi?

How will they know my tires pressures to begin with?
If it's a person running around with a gauge, I hope she is naked and sexy, also mute, because I don't want to hear her voice yapping about one tire being 110 and the tire beside it only 107.
She better put my valve caps back on to.

 

If weight stations and pilot is getting these systems, then all these power only companies are going to die. Literally 7 out of 10 trailers i move have questionable tires.
