I have no doubt they do, but that doesn't pump up the tires, which was my point in needing to go to a service station. Anyone who doesn't check theirs regularly and keep them within 2PSI of the rated doesn't understand what a decent ride is like. Cars handle perfectly only near the rated, go lower and they wallow and corner like crap. And there no such thing as great tires for holding pressure, they all lose it and the heavier they are the faster they lose it. Low profile tires like on many sports cars today are very susceptible to issues like dented rims if they go too low, also economy goes out the window! Many small high economy cars run 40 PSI just to get lower rolling friction, VW for example. Get too far below that and consumption goes way up.
We're 17 years past the peak now and the 3rd World is going hungry and dark. We'll be next, we're well on the way in fact.

I was walking around the CBD of the capital yesterday, peaceful and carefree, never saw a cop, they don't need them basically, no crime, no crazy protests where a bunch of nutjob leftists will beat you to the ground for wearing the wrong (conservative) cloths :lol:

I will admit that a couple of times, going into a toilet complex, and then alone up a dimly lit underground walkway, I was keeping a lookout for trouble. But I'd just left a bullion dealer and had $26,000 in the pockets of my cargo pants. Only in Queensland Australia can you feel ok about doing that, Queensland and say St Helena Island in the South Atlantic 8)

It's tempting... But the maintenance costs are a ripoff and the looping rear pipe cooks your leg. Plus I'd have to sell one of the others to make room and I'm happy with the set I have now. No BS Harleys of course! I don't know how people get sucked into those bags of shit. Pretenders wanting to look cool but like 70 years out of date.
