I bought this tire pressure gauge on Amazon for my old Ford pickup you know the one I've had since the 80s? It's been acting finicky lately and showing different readings each time I check the tires, and with winter coming, I don't want any blowouts on these icy roads. I tried calibrating it like the instructions said, but I'm not sure if I'm doing it right – technology these days! Any tips from you folks?

My car is a 2015 Honda Civic and the tires seem low sometimes. I bought a gauge but I'm not sure if it's right for my car. How do I check the pressure correctly? I don't want to mess up my tires.

Hey r/cars, I've got a 2018 Ford Explorer and I'm looking at this digital tire pressure gauge on Amazon. Is it reliable for larger vehicles like mine or should I stick with the analog ones? I've had issues with cheap ones reading wrong before, and I don't want to risk underinflating on long trips.
