I use TireMinder. Monitors temp & psi as well. Works in conjunction with an app on your phone. I like it, but on my latest trip, I think I have a bad sensor. I replaced the battery and it won’t connect to the system...so I’ll add that to my list of things to address.

EEZTire here. I like it. I use my phone as nav, so I like having a separate monitor for the tires.

One thing I wish it did was show all tire pressures and temps simultaneously, instead of scrolling through them one at a time. Most monitors scroll through, from what I've seen, most likely to conserve sensor battery I guess...

TireMinder and TST seem to be the most popular, I have a TM and it’s been good for 5-ish years. Had 1 sensor go bad and I bought a replacement. Replace the batteries each season and I’m good to go.
It’s alerted me to 2 failures and I credit it with preventing damage to my trailer.
For me a TPMS is not optional.

I use the EezTire T507 with the repeater for distance. Love that thing! Not 100% I need the repeater but with a 43 foot trailer and long bed truck figured it was worth the extra few bucks.

I also have a TST 507 w/ repeater and it works great. TST has great customer service. Also like that the batteries can be replaced in the sensor.

Previous tire monitor system I had was PressurePro - keep getting false alarms from it and when battery died in sensor needed to buy a new sensor for $50.

What every TMS you go with, confirm the sensor batteries can be replaced.

Good luck.

Recently pick up from dealer for slide adj. Was looking at it today and noticed cut out around each track top and bottom. Maybe it's always been like that and I've just seen it. Looks like water could get it.

For what it’s worth, the color white matches our throne, as I found out after ordering each color.

Careful making the swap, you’re working blind and there is a cavity in the toilet base that will swalllow all sorts of hardware, never to be seen again (not the obvious one). Luckily I had extras.

The steps cannot be folded in with the handrail in place because there’s not enough room between the door and the control panel wall.

So, I got some thumb screws to easily remove the handrail instead of having to use a wrench or socket

Hey Tom so where did you go to order your MorRyde step from, I order mines off of Amazon twice and had to send them back?

AUX51R from Aluminum Tank Industries. You will need their Fuel Shotz gravity feed connection kit for your particular truck. Mine was AIK175D.

Wow, 800 gallons. That's fair amount of extra weight in fuel. Looks good and now you don't have to plan out where to get fuel.
