Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Pressure Pro Vs Hopkins
Permalink  

I thinking about  purchasing a tire pressure montoring system however I'm not sure which one to purchase Pressure Pro or Hopkins. From what I read both systems do the same thing. The only difference I see is the price. Pressure Pro is 130.00 more than Hopkins.
Hopkins comes with the  monitor and 6 sensors. With Pressure  Pro, you purchase the monitor 190.00  then buy each sensor @ 50.00 

Would appreciate any comments

One of the things to look at is service and support. Pressure Pro is known for superior service. They are also a well engineered product that has worked out most of the issues. SOmetimes cheaper is not better. I've used Smartire and PressurePro. I'll stick with the PressurePro.

I recommend Mike and Pat McFall. http://www.pressureprosystem.com/

Yes I agree, cheaper is not better but again 100.00 difference is something to think about. I appreciate the replies from both of you. Its good to hear your comments regarding Mike and Pat. I did contact them for info on this product and their quick response was impressive. I will be ordering from them on Monday.

Thanks again, have a great weekend.

Gus Faella,

I'd like to weigh in on the value of service.  We bought our Pressure Pros from Pat & Mike McFall.  I have rarely experienced anything as close to the great service they offer.  Before I bought -- every question was answered quickly and thoroughly.

Five months passed between purchase and installation, but Pat was still available at anytime to help me with installation -- which by the way was not that difficult.  However, I did call early one morning as we were installing the Pressure Pros on our Honda CR-V and woke up Pat.  She was as nice as can be and insisted I ask my questions.

Now here is the payoff.  Unbeknownst to me, the Honda had a slow leak in a front tire.  Had I bought on line I would have put the sensors back in the box to install later.  But Pat got me to do it and correctly.

A few minutes after the installation, we got a low pressure warning. 

We saved the nightmare of serious damage to our car or worse. 

There is more to buying a safety device than saving $100.  You made the correct decision.
