How often do you check tire pressures ?
My wife told me this weekend the low psi light lit up on her genesis. So I drug the compressor out and aired all four up. (One was down about 5 psi) Then I figured I might as well do the work truck too since I had everything all set up, and probably the trailer and camper too, then the dual sports, dirt bikes, bicycles etc, so I got to thinking if I aired up every tire I own, how many would I have to blow up ? Counting bikes, cars, spares, trailers, dolly's etc, any tire that takes air, how many would I have to do ?
For me it would be 47 tires, plus the airbags on the camper make 49 things that I need the psi checked. Blink No, I didn't get to them all. If you were check the psi on every tire you own how many would you have to do ?

I got this Ryobi lithium battery inflator for xmas. I have 4 cars and have not had to recharge the battery yet. You can set the psi with automatic shut off. Battery fully charges in 30 min.

She likes it a lot. It's a 2010 Coupe. The "Touring" model. 6 cylinder, 6 speed manual. Fun car although it's been in for repairs more than I like. We bought the extended 100K / 10 year warry and am glad I did. It paid for itself.

Our nephew bought the "Track" model. It's got less insulation, stiffer suspension, bigger brakes, paddle shifting, and a wazoo touch screen stereo system with built in gps. It's easier to go fast with the paddle shifter and obviously the auto rocks in traffic over the stick. Although... "If it doesn't have a clutch, it's just a car..." LOL

I hope none of you fuggers ever have a flat. There is a spare in there that you might want to check as well. Of course that excludes a whole bunch of brand new junk. Amazing how many cars are getting sold these days without even a donut spare.

Motor home 10
1 car 4
3 trucks 15
5 bicycles 10
1 Kart 4 (but they are NOS 1960's and may not hold air)
about 30 dirt bikes 60
1 wheelbarrow 2
1 dolly 2
1 pressure washer 2
1 generator 2
1 cement cleaner for pressure washer 2

113 and probably missing a few

If you ever want a reason to put a pistol to the roof of your mouth, check all 30 of these. When it’s just a tad below freezing, and there’s about a ton of wet sloppy snow falling off, on your back, and down your neck. Twice a month.

I grew up as the son of a long haul, owner/operator. Many a time that was a chore of mine. Helped changed many a wheel also. Kudo's to you and what you do.

43...good grief...
At least the Cessna’s gone, so that’s 3 less...and while nowhere near as bad as Scooter’s situation, those sucked. I still had the wheel fairings, so I had to roll the plane, crawl flat to look up for the valve stem, repeat...and the stems were at a bullshit angle that made it almost impossible to get the chuck on straight...
