Air compressor
Hi All.. I want a air compressor to top off the truck tires to 80psi. And the trailer to 75psi. I found one that should work. It is a central air 21 gal.120ac, 14 amp. I want to plug into the power in...

I agree, it will work fine. You don't want to be running much else at the same time on the same circuit, of course. The compressor has a 15A plug on it and is designed to run on a 15A circuit.
That's a larger compressor than you need for topping off your tires, by the way, but if you think you might possibly use some other air tools that's probably not a bad thing. I carry a little Fini AirBoss compressor in my motorhome for tire duty and it dos a fine job for the 80 psi tires (and is also good for nail guns and similar sorts of air tools that don't need too much volume, but would not work out well for e.g. an impact wrench or die grinder or sander or paint sprayer).
