    My new pete came with that and according to the dealer its a gauge they put in to fill out the gauge package. He said its plumbed out to the firewall but not hooked to anything. So I had them order me up an air filter restriction gauge and parts to put it in place of the general air pressure gauge.

    No. Just looking at the truck. That’s probably why the miles divided by hrs comes out to 25 mph average.

    It is "generic" air gauge. Some guys plumb trailer air suspension into them for loading purposes.

    Pto blowers won't make 150psi. The safety opens at 18psi.

    I'm gonna agree with the other person about the trailer suspension.
