    Thanks so much for adding a Table of Contents / Chapters section. When I see that a video is longer than 30 minutes, I'll pass on it. I always view yours regardless of the length because I can jump directly to the sections that interest me. Thanks again, John.

    Great podcast, if these manufacturers can save $2 on a unit they will . They don't care about safety it's all talk no action . Their lousy warranties and service speak for themselves. I can think of maybe 4 manufacturers that do care about quality .👍

    *** A couple of added notes: I mentioned SPEED RATING in the video, however I failed to mention that most ST tires are rated at 65MPH MAX unless otherwise noted, which when combined with overloading/underinflation can be a problem. Most folks travel at least 65-70 on the interstate, and over time, that can damage the tires. Thanks again Mike and Jennifer for having me on!

    Have a Thor chateau 24f went to Georgia for Thanksgiving and my tires checked before driving was set to 75f /65r dual per sticker. About an hour on two separate drives was 89f / 79 r dual. Mfg tires hankook dynamo ht 225/ 75r16 which are e rated. Is this normal???

    QUESTION: As you drive, the tires heat up & the pressure increases too. Are you supposed to release the extra pressure?

    • @kcwerv
      @kcwerv Před rokem +3

      No, the manufactures take that in their plans when figuring out the PSI that is recommended based on the total weight on the tires.

      no, but always check pressures when you change elevations....

    As a suggestion, why not do an episode on RV tire discount programs comparing the costs and benefits of each?

    Question… wouldn’t it be easier and quicker to just call for a tow truck to get it to a tire shop, instead of doing it yourself on the road?

      Being it is a 5th Wheel, all six tow/assistance companies that I contacted could not or would not do it.

    I am a Buy American type of Guy, my problem is that allot of my American Companies are owned by over seas companies! Put the quality and cost back home and support our great workers in the USA! Check where your clothes, tires, etc! are made! Tired of these Wall Street Type investors, selling our USA people out and then post a increase in the stock market!
