Update on tire pressures: It appears that the Lexus tire pressure readings are accurate after all. My "expensive accurate tire gauge" appears to read 2 pounds lower than the actual pressure. UGH! ![Crying](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/Peace.gif)
As per recommendations here, I purchased a new $50 ACCUTIRE digital racing gauge, calibrateable and showing readings to .1 pounds. It completely agrees with the Lexus readings. I appreciate everyone's help here. I really never even gave a thought that my "good" gauge could be wrong!![Dunno](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/smilies/13879dunno.gif)
I really like the new gauge better anyway, and as I have two other cars in the family it will come in handy and now be correct.
Thanks again everyone for the advice!

It says "ITEM NUMBER MS-5510 Accutire Racing Gauge". It's digital and has a backlight. Cost $49.95.

Naah...I am not OCD about the house temp. In fact my wife is always either too hot or too cold...so when we moved here 16 years ago I swore I'd never ever touch the thermostat so I can't be accused of anything. And I never have.
Tire pressure, however, I AM OCD about. Frankly I am wondering how many tires I wore out prematurely because my gauge was causing me to put in 2 pounds too much. I'd guess 2 pounds wouldn't matter, but I do burn thru tires quickly up and down the hills of Pittsburgh.
