If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one
Re: Question : Tire Gauge
I personally prefer the pencil type gauges. Convenient for me.
I prefer Milton brand.
The cheapo pencil type gauges you find in the checkout line at Walmart and Costco, you could pick up 5 of those and you might get 5 very different readings from the same tire. And they don't last long.
Same for the cheapo pencil type gauges at the local DangerZone here.
I have several Milton brand pencil type gauges that read up to 50 PSI for use on cars. I keep one in each of my cars and probably 4 in my toolbox at work.
I have one 100 PSI Milton brand gauge for use on trucks.
I have 2 digital gauges that I mostly use for checking the accuracy of the others.
The Milton gauges usually stay within about 1-2 PSI of each other. If one varies too much, I toss it and get another.
