For those not checking air pressure...

Yea so the last week my mpg went from abotu 26 to 20. odd. So last night I was doing my normal 3500 rotation to discover horrible thread wear on the outside of my tires and almost none on the inside. So I checked the air pressure and what do you know, 18-19lbs(suppose to be 32ish) all the way around. Ive been neglecting checking my tire pressure the last 4 months lol. So just be sure to check yours!! end of rant..of yea... and some kid in an audi asked me if I took air out of my tires on purpose, but I ignored him about 3 days ago...

where ever they do it, they will put green caps to signify that you use nitrogen instead of air.
