    Got the Rite Weigh gauge installed, not sure if it works cause well, I dont have a trailer yet lol RA is the one wants/demands the tire pressure gauge is put on. Will be nice being able to see a readout of my pressures. I already bought a tire gauge anyway, just so I have another way of varyifing the gauge is correct

    Hey, ORD, since you've been out on the road for a load or two, what, if anything, have you heard about "older" drivers starting out on flats. It's still an interest of mine.

    Um, "in his late 40's" isn't old. I have children that age! :) And what does "in decent shape" mean?
