Do most fuel stations have air pressure pumps that provide 50 pounds air pressure? If not where do you top off your pod tires? Gar ------------- Love2 1der |

I do the same as furpod. I almost got the model in that link but it wasn't in stock, so I got one of the same brand that includes a built-in battery. Didn't think I'd like that but it turns out it is much easier than dragging out the hose from the big air pump, so most of the time I use the portable now (its output is better than other 12 volt pumps I've had, which also tips things in its favor). ------------- Doug ~ '10 171 (2009-2015) ~ 2008 Salem ~ http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1723 - Pod instruction manual
