DOes anyone have a aircompressor for their vehicle, either for emergency situations or for airing tires back up after offroading?
im looking for one for my truck, and one for my girlfriends car because she always gets flat tires, im thinking the tire just breaks off the rim when she hits a bump. i dont know what the problem is but she has had 2 flat tires in the last two weeks and there was nothing wrong with the tires.
for her aircompressor i think a cheap one from harbor freight would do, but what about for me,i need somethinf that can air up a bigger tire, but i dont want to spend a lot of money.

a cheap one is about your only option then. i have little campbell hausfeld 12v one i keep around Just in case and it has yet to let me down for 3 years now.

really want something, i suggest on Board Air, or a CO2 tank for off roading. i have On board Air on my truck witha Viair 380C compressor and a 3 gallon tank. works great, 200PSI all the time, more volume than a cheap pump. i also carry a 20# CO2 Tank in my jeep. great volume,it will last much longer than you think and will even run air tools.
