How do you guys handle this? Once you arrive at the camp site, do you lower the pressure and once again increase it when you leave? If you are moving sites to sites frequently, this must be a ...

I run 65 lbs in the front and 70 in the rear all the time. 265/75/16 E tires. Works for me.
I do the same year round. My first set of tires gave me 68,000, my current set is at 58,000 miles. I don't think I will get as many miles this time as the originals.
On your next set try 72 front and 45 rear solo and increase the rears to the proper psi for the load when towing. I easily get 100-120K at those pressures with Michelins or BFG's.
I will give it a try. I ran BF the first time and Michelin this time.
Thanks.
I know part of the reason I always got great mileage was because I drove at least 30 or miles each way for work. But I have paid a lot of attention to how peoples front tires always are worn on the edges and that does get evened out when rotation since the rears are overinflated. That is why most tires don't go as long as they could.
