    I am tired of those truck stop gauges breaking apart after just a couple months of use. What company makes them good?

    I've had good luck with the ones NAPA sells. Pricy but i haven't had to replace one for breaking yet. Have had a couple walk off for some reason

    Milton is what I use. About $10-15 more than the truck stops but lasts 10x longer.

    I got mine at a tire shop. Asked the guy putting on tires about his. He went inside and got me one. The manager only charged me 10 dollars.

    The tire shop is where I got mine. Also bought their chucks so I don't have to hold the hose on the tire valve.
