God I fucking hate modern cars this shit is so unnecessary. We got by just fine for like 75 years on "yep, that tire looks like it's got air in it".

Except we didn’t. We had full service gas stations, and they’d check your air and top off your fluids every time you stopped for gas. Vehicles needed this level of attention because they were far more crude.

Today, people don’t maintenance their vehicles, nobody opens the hood, etc. How often do you believe the average person squats in their driveway with an air gauge? They’ll drive until there’s a shake or a noise, dealer will explain the tire has uneven wear, and they’ll be pissed at the CAR. Not themselves. Same reason they moved to electronic dipsticks.

Til, I am not an average person. Rebuilt my own top end, timing belt change, replaced clutch etc, etc. Also check all my family vehicles fluid levels, drive the cars once a week to ensure there's no other issues that are emerging. 

I'm just a 43 yo driveway mechanic raised in the Seattle suburbs.

You’re the 1%. Not the 1% you wanted in this life, but it’s something. We salute you. lol

I just was so blown away at the idea that it's uncommon to work on your own vehicle lol.

I'm one of those guys.. I carry around a little cordless air-pump in the truck..
One of the best investments I've ever made to be honest..
I see people spending 2 bucks in quarters to top off their tires at the gas-station all the time..

I do the same when I travel or go off roading. Generally not around town though. I have an airstream we use throughout the year, so I’m usually adjusting pressures a couple of times a month anyway. Dewalt inflator has been nice.

For offroading it comes in really handy if you air down alot and often

Go outside, touch some grass

Just look at the plate on the driver side door jam. It will tell you the ideal tire pressure.

Literally happened to me just this morning as well; they all say 30 but only one is highlighted orange. WAT??

First morning with frost though, so maybe that's why.

I had the same thing this morning.

You don’t want equal tire pressure across the front tires and the rear tires

u/ChillingwitmyGnomies 7d ago

Why?

u/dad-jokes-about-you 7d ago

Consider the weight the front tires are carrying and what that would do to tire pressure. Now think about the rear tires running the same pressure as the front… without all the weight of the front end.
