CHD Dad,
I suspect the real world benefit of your TPMS is going to be if it saves you one day when perhaps you have picked up a nail in a tire that you did not otherwise notice.
That is the main reason I bought it. When I lost a cheap Chinese tire on our first camper I had no clue until a guy waved me down as he pulled up next to me on the highway. Had the tire been on the other side of the camper I am afraid of what could have happened! Camper was towing just fine on 3 tires...
I wanted the TPMS to let me know if there is a slow leak or even a catastrophic leak that I didnt feel. The fact that it tells me constant pressure and temp was a bonus. My reason for starting this thread is that after towing with the TPMS for well over 1000 miles and observing pressure and temp changes with speed changes I just didnt see that big a change when going over the "magic 65mph" number that all ST tires are restricted too.
