I too want to congratulate the OP on his decision to ditch the wheel covers/simulators. They are a major pain. This is a TRUCK, and while everyone wants their investment to look nice, don't let looks get in the way of practical.
Add some Alligator valve caps (fill thru caps, no need to remove) and get a 12 inch long Milton straight/back angle service chuck and a similar straight/back angle pressure gauge and you are all set.
I immediately removed the simulators from my View when I got it home, found a paint that closely matched the silver on the Mercedes wheels and touched them up and painted the hubs on the back axles black and installed the plastic MB front hub caps and enjoy the easy no hassles servicing.
