Just a reminder. When checking your tire pressures, don't forget to lower the spare tire and check it. While doing my tires to get ready to haul the BH home next week, I dropped the spare and found it to have only 50 psi. It's been hanging there since we got it (didn't think to check it before...duh). Wouldn't have been much use if we had a flat. Everybody's at 110 psi, now.
A tip for those, like me, using a small air nailer compressor to bring pressure up to 110 psi. Let the compressor fill its tank to maximum, like normal, then use the dump valve until it kicks back on. Then, while it's running, put the chuck on the valve stem. Makes the compressor "think" it's filling a bigger tank and it will get you to the higher pressure without a problem.
