This is why Dick_B said it was a scam to "sell" you on nitrogen in tires --- Just a little FYI:
By volume, dry air contains 78.09% nitrogen, 20.95% oxygen, 0.93% argon, 0.039% carbon dioxide, and small amounts of other gases.

Gee! we haven't had a post on nitrogen in the RV tires in several weeks. Must be getting close to camping season again...

The question has been posted many times on these forums, and the overwhelming majority respond, ... just use regular air. I agree.

Since both my automobiles are still under warranty and all servicing is covered for 2 years, I don't worry about my tires. They take care of them. But once out of warranty, I have my own air compressor. My last car originally came with nitrogen, but I'm sure when we traded it was all just normal air. My TT tires are all air. I think the "nitrogen" (thing) is just a gimmick, to make you think you need something special. You don't. ... as stated above ... race cars and airplanes, yes, The family RV ... NO!

Any old air is fine. yes Nitrogen is a huge money maker! All my tires have lasted quite a long time with just the Nitrogen in the air.

Agree and that's my way of thinking.
