50% is a safe value on an empty truck, not real tire smart are you??
In no way shape or form would that be under inflated.

Only in your imagination is 50% inflation okay for tires under load. Period.
I suppose you expect every load center (sand, gravel, coal, wood, lumber, blocks, etc) to have a customer air station so they can pull in with 50% inflated tires, load up, then stop and add air to their tires? Get real.
Look. We aren't debating 'Ford vs Chevy' or who has the best football team. Proper and SAFE tire inflation is potentially Life and Death stuff- literally. Telling people they should be running their tires at 50% inflation can really get people hurt- or worse! :E
