Equipment For The Road
Re: Equipment For The Road
Along with tools, emergency equipment and the like, I’ve found this air inflator to be in valuable:

Great for getting all tires to proper pressure whether filling or deflating. Set the pressure you want and do something else for a bit. I’m already married to the dewalt system so it works for me.
Having this bypasses having to find an accessible air station and having to pay for air.
Also inflates/deflates rafts, balls, bike tires etc...
The other part I carry is a spare thermal cutoff for the hot water heater, $15 insurance.
In my lower compartments I store chocks, tarps, a small shovel, rope and road dirt...
I use the old battery box from my Silver Streak to store lubricants in spray or squeeze form. Stores in my rear trunk.

Re: Equipment For The Road
An air inflator is handy. When parked for an extended period one ought to raise cold pressure by 10% past sidewall maximum. As well as be parked on wood.
Lug nut torque & tire pressure are daily pre-trip.
