    Running a TRDOR 17 with stock wheels and tires. Is there a suitable VIAIR compressor with cigarette lighter power source and has a digital pressure gauge vs. a dial?

    The 12V ports on 3rd gens were downgraded to 10A. The only ViAir model that draws 10A or less is the purse-sized 75P, and it has an analog gauge: https://www.viaircorp.com/portables/75p

    You want to get a compressor that connects directly to the battery, not one of those 12v ones that plugs into the cig lighter. Those are painfully slow for truck tires and usually only good for one tire at a time before you have to let them cool off for awhile.

    The battery connecting compressors are much nicer and faster

    Hook it to the battery, leave the truck running with the AC on and have the cold sir blowing on the compressor.
