Question Who makes a good tire pressure gauge

In my life time I probably have had seven tire gauges. They either did not last long or they were not accurate. Does any body know who makes a good tire gauge. Thanks. Bob.

It was a freebie!

Bob, I have owned two excellent pressure gauges. On is a digital gage I use on the suspension of my mountain bike, which maxes out at 12 psi I think. The other was a freebie I got from Marlboro. Well, I sent in a whole bunch of miles that a guy I use to work with gave me. I have to say, that little digital guy was terribly accurate. I used my expensive bike gauge and then double checked with the Marlboro one and it was dead on everytime. I remember there was a manufacturer name on the back. It is under the seat of my motorcycle, so I will have to check on that for you. Enjoy the snow we are getting!

Accutire

I got an Accutire digital gauge for Xmas about 4 years ago. It comes in a nice case and measures to the 10th. You can find them for about $25 in alot of catalogs like JC Whitney or Sears Auto. I am pretty **** about the tire pressures on al my cars and trailers.
