    It's very simple. You get out to air up, and once all 4 tires are hooked up, you go sit back in the dry cab with said nurse goddess instead of standing in the rain bullshitting with the guys who probably smell like wet dog. More time spent with women = approval.

    I was messing with this a bunch today... Here's what I came up with. I used http://www.napaonline.com/Catalog/C.../Tire-Air-Chuck-Clips/_/R-NTH90536_0344222035 and a male quick disconnect. I put the first one on, slowly walk to the second wheel, put it on, slowly walk, rinse repeat. It takes about 2 minutes to walk around the truck removing the caps and putting the chucks on. By the time I get back to the first tire, it's at ~12-15psi. Check it, wait for it, take the chuck off. Go to tire number two. It's literally faster to do that than it is to get the hose out that you would hook up to your deflation system.

    I tried the hose, I ran it through a regulator, I even just let the hose piss out to atmosphere. Still faster to just walk around it twice.

    Seriously, she really doesn't get on me about it, other than saying thing like " oh, now we won't retire until age 84" , and " I'm going to Nordsrtoms now".
    But, as an ER nurse of 28 years, she knows a number of ways to kill me in my sleep which can't be detected in an autopsy, so I prefer to shift the blame to you, as you don't sleep with her.

    You don't, right?

    Also, I blame Brian, Bob, and Jarod a lot too. Not for the sleeping part.

    Just keep your livestock and uglier daughters away from the Buzz, the Log Cabin, and the Red Lion.

    EDIT: Just make that any place that serves alcohol within walking distance of the hotel.

    It's not a bad look. Makes me wish I didn't have a white truck again. Maybe time to wrap it.

    I don't jump on here much but commenting on the little I know and for asking the questions are have! Hell of a resource and wealth of knowledge here, but I did go 1 step higher just for the thought of future tire upgrades! I bought the ViAir 400P and got it two weeks ago. I have some 285/70/17s on my truck and it does work!!! Haven't tested it out wheeling but I aired down a couple tires to 20 in the driveway and back up to 35 in a matter of about 4-5 minutes for all 4. It is rated to fill 35" tires, so for a little extra cash things go quicker and you have a higher capability later down the road......... oh ya also without breaking the bank on everything else

    It must be older or clogged or something?

    I haven't timed mine but it's somewhere in the 2-4 minute range depending what I droped down to. I only tend to inflate to 30-32 with it. I'll go higher once I get home and can use the real compressor

    Anyone think this is a decent deal? I was kind of impulsive when I bought it because I was irritated with two pumps I previously had and then went to four gas stations and wasted 4 quarters at each location to find out their F"ING pumps didn't work!!!! I don't care about the 4$ but fuck it was driving me nuts driving around in the snow trying to air up ever place you stop......... and not getting anywhere!

    BUY an AIR resource to have with your truck!!!!!!!!! Anything is better than nothing.
