    This is probably not the solution most people would pick but honestly I just use my manual bike pump lol

    I already had it, and it works just fine with a little effort. No batteries, no cables, no electronics. Just a pump. It’s been working pretty alright for me

    Sedan tires are probably quite a bit smaller than truck tires though, so pumping might get more tiring (hah :P)

    Otherwise honestly this might be a thing where most decent options would hold up okay. Myself, I’d be looking harbor freight reviews to see if folks think their options are reliable (I’m very broke lol. Which is why bike pump lol)

    I hope you find a good solution!

      I have also inflated my car tires a few psi with a stand bike pump too. Bike tires are often have much higher PSI, than car tires, so the pump can easily fill the tire it just takes a while… (Though to be fair I was mostly fixing a low pressure issue, so I was inflating the car tire from like 37 psi to 42 psi)

        That’s usually what I’m doing too, from like 28 to 35

        Lol, totally understandable

        I hate loud stuff so for me it’s a tradeoff either way. And I really hate things that are loud 😅

      I have a 12V air compressor and a manual pump as backup in the car.

      I’ve never needed to use the backup, but I do like having it.
