45 bones for a tire gauge?! YEEF! Are you going to be racing your truck on
the NASCAR circuit or what Kyle? That's about the only place I can think of
that tire pressure could be that critical.
I think I paid $12 for mine (which I thought was alot) at a local autozone or
pep boys. It's a quality round gauge w/bleeder valve that goes from 0-40 in 1
lbs increments. It comes in a nice plastic case that protects it from
glove-box bullies. :-)
So, with the money I've saved you, you can send a case of beer to.... :-)

What are the benefits of having a liquid filled tire guage compared other tire
guages. I am looking to buy a "good" tire guage, rather than relying on those
pencil type ones. I am looking for the type with a nice big 1.5"-2" Round Face
Dial, 0-60PSI, and one with a bleeder vavle built into it. I have seem these
for around $25-$40 in Jeg's and Summit's catalogs. I have stumled across a
liquid filled one for $45 and just curious about the liquid and what it
benefits are. Here is a link of the one I found for $45.......I know, I know,
it is a Toyota 4WD website, please forgive me.

Here is what the site(http://www.off-road.com/~allpro/product.html) says
about it:
"Made by Quickcar this high quality liquid filled air pressure gauge is
accurate to within 1/2 pound. Many hard core wheelers keep two different air
gauges with them, one for street pressures and a second 0-20 gauge for more
accurate reading of trail pressures. Now you can have two in one. 0-40 PSI
and accuracy to within 1/2 PSI. In stock and available for immediate
delivery. One year warranty. $44.99."
Any input??????
