to put a compressor in there. I bought a 20 gal compressor, hooked
it up to my 110V power and use it as needed. That makes me independent
from any truck stop and in combination with my pressure monitor I can
keep the tire pressure in the green at all times no matter where I am.
My two cents.

My opinion--If you are in an area where temp swing early AM to the rest
of the day are 30-40 degree range, you have a problem. My practice is to
leave it alone and drive on. If you are 5 PSI down and the temp is
anywhere near what you expect for the day, add 5 PSI at the next truck
stop. Of course, while 5 PSI down is not a serious problem, the proper
pressure should be regained. But I'm sure you have more significant loss
in mind.
