I forgot to mention, carrying a few extra fuses is a good idea. This compressor uses a 40 amp inline fuse.........

Erick, Great write up on the ViaAir I have been looking at this ViaAir 400P for sometime for my 2013 truck. I have an ExtremeAire compressor that I installed in 2004 that is been flawless in my 1999 Truck. I went through several smaller (read as broke) units before installing the ExtremeAire. I am wondering if anybody has used one of these ViaAir products over a say 10 year period and how has it held up? The downside of the ExtremeAire is the amount of power it draws and associated $$.

We recently got one of the VIAIR 88P Portable Air Compressors based on recommendations in these forums.  Already, it has proved itself.  On our recent outing my TV developed a leak in the right rear tire (I'm taking it in for...

After experiencing my first tire blow out which caused $4500 in damage to my truck, I was in a fairly emotional state and willing to spend some money. During the process of changing to my under inflated spare, I discovered my current tire inflator was inadequate. I went shopping for a better one and decided on the VIAIR 400P Automatic.

Don I wonder if they will tell you what went wrong. Well I know ours is different, we have an onboard compressor, I like to run it once in awhile to keep the air pressure up and mechanically have things working. I don't know but I like getting all my mechanical...

After our trip to Death Valley I decided it was time to replace my 30 year old compressor. It has served me well when called upon but didn't have the capability to inflate all four truck tires and therein was the problem. When we tow we pump up the tires about 5 lbs over recommended pressure to accommodate the increased load. That works well on the pavement but when we went offroad with an empty truck, it made for a very harsh ride. I really wanted to deflate the tires but was concerned I...
