    For you guys with 08's and earlier, take the spare down and flip it over. Leave the valve stem toward the back of the truck. Not so much of a PITA to add air to the spare. (it wouldn't be a bad idea for the new model guys to do the same, just check out the spare every now and then so your not screwed if you get a flat)

    Has anyone checked to see if Toyota would be willing to remove the sensor and reprogram the trucks that have them in the spare? I'm assuming it wouldn't be a safety issue for Toyota since they no longer put them on. The sensor in the spare is a pain in the ass!

    I have a dual foot fill chuck that i can get to the spare with! Also have a dual foot tire pressure guage! That makes an easy fix.
