Thanks for the link. Interesting thoughts on the benefits of Nitrogen from this dealer as detailed in their Nitrogen Coupon special. Increased fuel economy? Thoughts on that aspect?

Yep, costco fills with Nitrogen for free. My acura has nitrogen in the tires, and my E60 with just regular air. Maybe it's all in my head, but it seems like I NEVER have to refill the nitrogen. I hate the green caps though :thumbsdown:
