    That's what they say but the airbag sensors aren't in the bumper.

    You're right. It's that two foot distance between 250# of bumper and the air bag sensor. Lots of people run those bumpers so the occasional deer won't pop the air bags. A bigger deer will bend it. A doe will smash off. It's not in the sales brochure but that's what that bumper is meant for. Deer catcher.

    Mounted the valves in the fuel door.
    Nice location actually... Accessible, yet hidden and protected. I wonder how hard it would be to rig up a small pump and an auto leveling sensor. They probably make a kit for that, but shouldn't be too hard to homebrew either.

    Remote kit is about $300.

    I always carry a $30 12v tire inflator (in all my vehicles) besides the two full sized compressors that are in my trailer.

    Would be easy to hook the inflator up permanent and run a separate gauge in the cab with the power switch. Valve each side independently too if desired.

    To me less fittings is better and I don't change the pressure often anyways. Not really worth it in the long run.
