I have had the Pressure Pro installed for three or four years and love it.

I also recommend purchasing from Mike & Pat McFall. They are Rv'ers, full timers and Escapee members and stand behind the Pressure Pro with excellent service.


ABSOLUTELY x 2...!!! GREAT service from friendly folks....

The McFalls are the greatest to deal with, with experience in using an HDT to tow a beautiful Teton who knew enough about their product to recommend the optional repeater antenna for my longer than normal wheelbase which has resulted in me still getting signals from my trailer when I'm a good hundred yards away from it.

Looking at the TST website, I would be curious about how difficult it is to install. The Pressure Pro looks to be completely wireless, but the TST looks like you have to mount an antenna on the roof?

Most of systems are great, I know many are happy with theirselections whether its the PP, TST or Doarn. but take a look at this system, for the money I think it will more than pay for itself.

Also this guy is great to deal with,He will answer any of your questions and the price is a little better:

The antenna can be stuck under the sun visor, laid on the dash or strung out to attach to the back window of your truck. It all depends on the interference between the farthest sender and the monitor. There is no need to put it on the roof.

I researched both systems and talked to many folk about a TPMS. I went with Pressure Pro. It is a great system, easy to install and does everything claimed. Would highly reccommend the system.

I have the TST system. Not only is there a big price difference, I liked the monitor better but the "biggy" was I can set the Temperature and HI/ Lo PSI's at whatever I want.
