So getting fifth wheel ready for this summer, when and if it comes.
And the tires I know the dealer filled to 50PSI are only reading 37-38 PSI, now granted we did not use the rig last year, so it has sat for a while, but to drop down that low, is that what most of you find?

Same here, sounds normal. plus when did the dealer fill it,, 50 pounds in August might only be 30 pounds in Feburary, even with no loss of air at all

Thanks for the feedback, good point on temperature, as they were done in July and that sat in my truck till I got home and they were reading over 50 after being in the sun at that time.

But I guess I am so used to my car, which I do check more often that this sounded odd, but going by what you are saying then mine is normal for that length of storage.
