:) I was just wondering how everyone manages to inflate their tires on the 5er. I have made many stops at truck stops and re-fuel plaza's and they just have the machines that you put quarters into. With a tire that requires 110 pounds of pressure, most of these quarter machines are just not up to the task of providing that kind of air pressure. When you pull into some of the refueling stations that handle commercial rigs they sometimes don't appreciate recreational drivers pulling 5th wheel rigs. We are taking up their space and intruding in their business. This being said some of the larger stations like that don't appear to have air on them for refilling tires, what is a person to do?
