One in every five trucks needs a York.....   ;D  Two minutes per truck.

If you do go down the low cost CT style compressor, just buy two of them as they are cheap and do 2 tires at once.

I think I will go with the Viair 400P.  Seems like a reasonable price, and a reputable name.  I like the idea of the powertank as it has no moving parts, but having to pay to fill the thing up all the time is less appealing.  I want free air!

Thanks all for the comments.  Definitely helped a lot.  ;D

I dont know how often you wheel, but I would be surprised if you filled a powertank more then once a year.

Honestly, if you are, you need to stop wheeling that brand new truck and buy an old YJ........lol

Another option you could look into is a set os that of brackets that allows you to add a second compressor, so you can keep your AC and still get OBA.
