Thoughts?!

 

i like it. better than an idiot light on the dash.

 

Same here, just wish it wasn't sooooo expensive!

 

If the price comes down, I will be so in on this

 

This may set off other companies to make the same type of product...give it a year we may say the price come down due to competition.

 

Yep! Capitalism

 

Hm... I thought the OEM sensors were like $60 a pop?

 

They are but I already have those. Don't want to swap them haha

 

my 2016 shows real time pressures. Its nice off road to make sure you don't have a tire going low on you while you're wheeling

 

Would be relatively amusing given that the masses on TW despise TPMS, that ARB starts to sell one with a screen and it becomes awesome and worth $350.

 

Why do people despise it?

 

because someone put it on their truck without them asking. big brother, government intervention. and because most members are cry babies

 

But it just monitors tire pressure right? Who cares? That seems nice. I'd prefer to know when I'm low

 

TPMS is an added cost that just plain isn't necessary, has an annoying light when you don't have it, and if you don't have it a lot of shops won't work on your vehicle (in my area), well that's my reason for despising it

 

me too. I was speaking as if I was a complainer

 

I'd prefer to know when a tire goes low. Low pressure causes blowouts. Ask Ford.

 

Quote from the link, "Showing tire pressure of all 4 tires in real time, the monitor can quickly detect punctures or excessive temperature, giving both a visual and audible warning to alert the driver of possible tire failure."

I think this system is definitely handy, just not $370 handy.

 

I didn't have it on my tacoma and shops still worked on it. Why would that stop them?

 

Agreed

 

and plenty of tires blow out with tpms sensors on it, if your that worried about it take a 10 second walk around your truck and look at the tires
