TPM 4 vs 10 opinions plz

My niece and her DH were on a 2 lane road with their Everest and F350 CC DRW when a small vibration developed. Before they could figure it out the left front tire on the TV blew big time. They barely managed to maintain control and were all over the whole road. Luckily there was no traffic on the road or it would have been much worse. DH is a big construction worker and he was amazed at how fast it happened and how hard it was to "control" the TV.

The dollars spent on TV body damage would have easily paid for a really nice TPM system, and that system would have set off an alarm to let them know they had a hot tire but only if they had sensors on the front tires.

Afternoon to all,

Ready to purchase a Tire Pressure monitoring system and want opinions on 4 sensors compared to 10.

Personally I think the fifth wheel is the only thing that should be monitored, and Mamma Bear feels all including the dually truck should be monitored.

Options welcome, and reason behind your opinion would be helpful as well.

Looking forward to responses..

With the weight you are carrying on the truck, why would you NOT want an early warning if one of your tires started to lose pressure and/or get too hot??
It could save you a rather abrupt, unexpected and inconvenient stop.
I vote with your Mamma Bear for sensors on every tire.

I chose the 4-tire option. I feel like I naturally pay close attention to the TV's tires, and since I'm riding in it I feel like I would have early enough warning if one of them started losing air.
