When you get to be 68 years young like ole Mickster you appreciate hitting a button on the steering wheel and seeing what the air pressure is in all 4 tires separately. That bending over and manually checking with a tire gauge is ok when your back and knees work properly, but later in life when you start paying for all the sports, and resulting injuries, you did early in life................a tire monitoring system is very nice.

semi related rant .. I hate TPMS sensors. just an additional cost to me any time you fiddle with the tires, they are often overly sensitive, and it's an additional cost to the total car of the vehicle. I'd rather they didn't exist, alas, you cannot get a new car without them

TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR FAULT.

Hey, how about a flashing orange light on your dash?!

Then I pull in my garage, where it senses them in my factory wheels.

HEY, YOU GOT LOW TIRE PRESSURE, BRO.

DIIIIIIIIING

One day, maybe the 2015s will have something sweet.

The information display on the 2013 between the gauges is great. It shows a ton of information; much more than any other car I have driven. What other car shows the A/F ratio in real-time among other thing?
