I have 120V compressor who will run of 450 wats factory inverter mounted in my F350, but it is slow.

Seeing it 150 psi rated, you should have enough air in the tank to inflate 1 tire on instant.
By the time you move to other tire, the compressor should be able to build the pressure.

Meaning once it runs, you have to be quick going between the wheels so the compressor motor never stops.
I had the same situation with 12V compressor, who would blow the fuses when restarted at 90 psi.
