New camper coming has nitrogen filled tires

Nitrogen doesn't expand and contract as much as typical air from a compressor due to moisture, so, when your tires get hot, the Nitrogen tire does not expand as much, or have as much of a pressure change.
Horsepucky.
Automotive tires don't get hot enough for moisture to have any impact tire pressure.
You'd have to get the AIR temperature inside the tire above 212F before moisture has an impact. At 212F, you're in deep doodoo already.
