Hello my name is John and my other 1/2 is Therese. We've been partiming (2,3,5 Months) now for 3 years. Full timeing in a few more years. We started out with a leaker. My fault not knowing what I was getting into. At a Rally in 2007 we picked up our 2007 Jayco Seneca which was the best move we've made. 3 slides 37' desiel Duramax 300hp. We love it and it loves the mountians. We tow a 2005 Chev. Colorado pickup using a roadmaster tow bar syatem. We're both retired and we love it. We use Passport America mostly on our traveles around the States. We also love camping in state and federal parks. We have camp hosted in Colorado in 2008. Nothing this year, but next year we'll host in either Louisiana, Texas, or New Mexico.

I've been using a Pressure Pro this year. It works pretty good as there's no major fluctuations between the sensors. Ran about $700.00 for all 10 wheels. I had a unit I got off the internet prior to picking this one up at a Rally. The other unit was very unreliabel so I returned it. Big thing is get metal valve stems installed on your toad. Also be ready to do some messing around until you understand the system. I put valve stem extenders on my coach's rear wheels for ease in airing. I finally used the log wirebraded ones with good luck after trying other options. I also put on 1" extenders on the front wheels for ease also. Now that I've done all the above it's a breeze to check and air tires. Camping World has a unit now which costs a tad less. I would try their system as you could return it if it wasn't what you want. Also their sensors seem to be the same ones that I'm using so I'm thinking it may be the same unit I have but with a different look.

I use a falcon 2 and I'm pretty happy with it. I will be upgrading to a Sterling as they are lighter and are easier to use if you have a binding situation. When my set-up is removed you can't tell that the truck is used as a toad. Also if you're at a Rally where Roadmaster is going to be present they'll referbish your towbar for free. If you want to upgrade they'll have a deal at the Rally for the Sterling. That's what I'll be doing
