    If you can find something that says what approx. fill times for a tire size similar to your own I would consider it.
    I had a compressor similar to that one, but twice as large, and filling my truck tires which were 295s was a 5 minute process per tire just for 10 PSI or so.

    Motor gets too hot running long enough to be useful and wears out prematurely. I just don't wanna steer you wrong for a decent truck tire compressor.

    Mine comes with a carry case, if it helps. And isn't that big. I can take a pic of you like.

    You just want to get one meant for truck tires, not passenger car tires!

    PeeRunner...I am actually glad you did that. I was under the impression they all air up and that's that. New to the off roading world but already starting to love it

    Nope. Motors overheat easily when they're meant for short run times (few minutes to air up a few pounds), and truck specific pumps will handle that a lot better without burning themselves up, and do it a lot faster also. They're meant to air up 15-20 PSI, unlike the cigarette lighter powered, plastic housed things like you posted.
