Filling tires/nitrogen Gas

[Phil Gobie]

You guys can say and think what you will but I have not had to add pressure for 20 months now. And when I send my girls off to school I know they are not likely to check there tires often so if it stays longer it may help.
As for adding on the road you can always add air.
It is working for me!

I have nitrogen in my SuperDuty tires. I was told many things, better mpg, smoother ride, less pressure fluctuation, run cooler, better tire life ect. All I can say is I dont have to add air they seem to stay full, as for the rest, I see no difference. The green caps are a conversation peice though. Would I do it again??? I dont know. I will alsways use a air dryer when filling my tires up with air.

When I got to the campground, I had to park under a large tree to keep the trailer from floating away.

And my gas mileage didn't really improve that much. Overall, a less than optimal experience.

Under correct circumstances, it will help mitigate shot axles, though.

Just checked my tires again (6 months later) and they are still holding the same presser. All 4 tires are still the same! I am having similar results on my motorcycles, scooters, bikes and other cars. Quite the novelty! I am still sold

Phil,

I have had the same experience with my TV. I check them, just don't fill them. All I use is air.
