Tire Inflation, Really?

I thought everyone might find this one amusing.

Working in the Electronics department of a Supercenter I have a lot of excited vacationers come through my department, or more than average comments about the price of gas.

I have recently in the last month or so encouraged my customers to check his or her tire pressure checked. Even so far as to swing by the tire and lube in some instances: thumbup:

I have also encouraged them to check out this wonderful sight. So if any of my customers are reading, Thanks for following through, I hope the advice you find here works for you.

Back to topic.

One recent customer was really surprised that he or she needed to have the tire pressure checked at least once a month or thousand mile. I had asked when was the last time they had it done. They responded it was done six months ago. (Don't cringe, we all know it happens.) Turned out they had the car serviced a month ago and was wondering if the air pressure could go down that quickly. I know its enough to effect fuel economy. I honestly believe the customer will have the tire pressure checked before he or she leaves for vacation.

My good deed for the month has been done.
