    I am considering a TPMS (tire pressure monitoring system) for my motorhome and 'toad'. Does anyone have experience with a TPMS? Good or bad? Any particular brand over another? I am considering the Tire Minder "TMG 400C" which can monitor up to 22 tires for pressure and temperature. It also allows for battery replacement and not the complete sensor. Any comment on this brand?

    as new owners of a Fleetwood Discovery, (and new to the RV lifestyle) we too are considering purchasing a TPMS and looking for feedback on various makes and models. I'd be interested in hearing any feedback good or bad on what others are using. Thanks!

    I use the Truck System Technologies tire monitoring system. It's the only system I've had so don't have anything to compare it to. Seemed to get good ratings when I researched it originally and it wasn't as expensive as others. I've had it for about a year and already replaced the batteries in four out of eight sensors. No idea how long they were on the shelf before shipped to me. Ordered them through Amazon. They were simple to install and the batteries weren't that difficult to change.  Nice to have since I'm not too good at checking the tire pressure myself all that often.

    I purchased a Pressure Pro system last summer. Seems that I see more Pressure Pro than other brands. System was easy to set up. Some of the other brands let you add air through the sensor. On mine you have to remove it. So far system seems to work ok. Batteries are supposed to last 5 years. I remove mine when parked for an extended period.
