Are Our Tires REALLY that sensitive?
I know I will roust the ire of many a tire aficionado, as well as those who will claim expert knowledge from years of traveling and RV'ing and quasi-engineering or actual engineering status/certificat...

I put 100 - 105" in my 6 tires (w/tire gage readings) and have only had problems as follows:
-lost air in a tire while @ daughters driveway. Found a nail and had it repaired.
- lost air in a tire while in campground. Found a leak in the extension I added.
-lost air in a tire while in storage. Found problem w/ new TPMS sensor leaking & still trying to figure out cause of this problem.
I have never weighed the MH and replace tires every 5-6 yrs. On my 3rd set now. My new TPMS system has given me readings as low as 92 psi when cold and up to 122 psi on on tire on this recent 1200 mi winter trip.
I have always checked the tire pressures before starting a trip to be sure they are in the 100-105 psi range. The new TPMS seems to read the tires about 6 lbs lower than my gage when cold.
