Hey all! This is Tyler from Power Tank! We are a small family business based in the Sacramento Area of CA. Power Tank started in 1997 by my dad, Steve, before there were any good portable tire inflation products on the market. He put together a CO2 system from parts from a welding supply after ruining a set of brand new BFG mud tires from not being able to air himself up after a trail. He put an ad in a 4x4 magazine and it became a business! Fast forward 25+ years and we have been constantly improving the Power Tank while also adding more products to our lineup. The Power Tank remains the fastest and most reliable way to air up after a day on the trail, especially when paired with Monster Valves which also allow rapid tire deflation. We make Shock Inflation tools used by professional race teams and rec wheelers alike. Our line of propane tank brackets and fire extinguisher brackets are lightweight and incredibly strong. I know many of you already have built-in compressors so instead of trying to sell you something off the bat, I would rather learn about how you all air up and air down for off-roading. What are your typical street and trail pressures? Is the 20 ft hose included with the compressor kit long enough? Would you prefer to have a Tire Inflator tool with a gauge? We make everything in-house so we have the capability to make custom solutions to adapt to your existing equipment if we're aware of any pain points or annoyances. www.powertank.com

Thought I should share a Youtube video I watched some days back about 2025 R1T Tri-motor Max Pack. Well, for those who haven't seen the video or watched it yet, the Tri Max barely got more range than the Gen1 quad and overall I'd say it's efficiency wasn't better either. It only went 9 miles more with a 10% larger pack.

Both were wearing 20" AT Pirellis with similar conditions. I should’ve added, 298 versus 289. Wonder what happened to all the vaunted efficiency gains tho.

This is pretty much just my personal takeaway. I should have added efficiency of 2.1 vs 2.3 as you could spend 50k more on a new Tri and get 9 more miles. That is with a heat pump and a max pack.

I've driven the Gen 1 and Gen 2 trucks before and to be honest, I really enjoyed driving the Gen 1. Maybe cause it was the first rollout but driving was smooth. I now drive the Gen 2 and despite my personal take, it's not as bad as it sounds. Everyone knows what they want and what appeals to them. Some people love the Gen 2 more while others prefer to stick to the Gen 1. Either option you chose, it's a guarantee that you'd definitely be getting the best out of your truck.
