    doesn't show in the US costco site

    found it..

    the sensors are $35 each in the US so $70 for 2 (76.99 here)
    the base unit is $318 canadian.

    here is the tiretracker site.. $219 for the base, 4 tire kit

    I would think that is correct. If you can get the complete system for $76.99 buy as many as you can cause that is a steal. Have had the system for 2 years. It is reliable and you do have to wake up the sensors when they have been idle.

    I use the TireMinder on my enclosed car hauler. I paid $199 for it 3 yrs ago. (4 sensors)

    I don't know about the TST system. My tireminder monitor seems 'slow' to me.
    if the trailer sits for a day, the sensors go to sleep. (save battery).
    but it takes 15 miles before they wake up again.

    I had one tire disintegrate at 16 miles from home, and the monitor went off as I was pulling off the road cause I saw it from the rearview mirror.

    tire minder and tire tracker are the same stuff with different labels.

    only thing I don't like is they want you to unplug the receiver after an 8 hour charge. but I don't always pull the trailer..

    I may go buy another one to get 4 more sensors!
