X100 TST 507 with the caps. Their customer service is amazing. I had a question on the setup and they walked me thru it each step and it has performed well. No tire issues yet and hope never will but feel confident system will perform as expected. I did a review of my install of the repeater on my blog, https://agrandetour.com/more-peace-of-mind/

We've been using a Tireminder TM-77 system with their Rhino signal booster for about three years now and it's worked flawlessly.

Sorry for the late reply. Ty he rear end is 3.55 with the 3.5 EcoBoost. The 3.5 outperforms the 5l coyote.

I must be odd man out but I just put on Tire Tracker TT-600 and been on a 4000 mile trip with no problems, don't know about customer service because didn't have to use them. So far so good.

We just have a single axle. Looking at the cost of the TST 507, its a initial hit. But may be worth it. @Doppleganger

I bought the inexpensive Tireminder solar powered tire monitor and see no reason to spend any more money on anything more sophisticated. It does the job for less than $150.

Dill Air TPMS has worked well for me

I think the first decision you should make is whether you want the sensors inside the tires or screw-on the valve stems.
In my case I chose to have sensors inside the tire. This is a little more costly as you have to get the tires broken down and the sensors installed. You also loose the option of moving the sensors to a boat trailer or utility trailer.
My system works well AND I can see the actual temperature inside the tire. This saved me from having a bigger problem last summer when I, for some reason, had a brake shoe get to tight and got so hot that the wheel bearing grease began running out. Because of the warning the TPMS gave me, I was able to stop and investigate and solve.
I think they are available through Tire Rack.

EEZ TMPS

I have used the EEZ TPMS on my first Class A gas and then transferred the system over (along with a purchase of 6 additional TPMS sensors) to my Class A diesel and Toad. Not only is the EEZ system simple to operate, BUT the customer service they provide is OUTSTANDING! Highly highly highly recommend EEZ TPMS!!!

Odd guy here.

Decided to try a tpms for our trip to Florida. First time user so decided to go cheap. I purchased the Tymate with six external sensors. When installed they were within 1 psi of my gauge. These don't read until we are on the move. 1400 miles so far into our trip and have to say they work great. Nice to see if we have any unusual pressure or temp change. This is a solar/plugin style and the battery monitor showed full the whole trip so far without plugging into USB port.

I have seen a few references to being able to monitor internal tire temperature. In my experience, an external sensor is nearly worthless in terms of temperature since it is constantly being cooled by the air it is passing through as the tire rotates. I have used various TPMS sensors on a motorcycle for many years. For the first 10 years I used a sensor that was banded to the rim fully inside the tire. Motorcycle tires run much hotter than car or trailer tires but it was not unusual to see a reported 60-70 degree rise over ambient temperatures while riding. I later switched to external sensors and the reported internal temperature was rarely more than 10 degrees higher than ambient. The good news is that pressure rises with temperature so keeping an eye on pressure rise would give you some indication of the internal temperatures. The ratio I have heard most often is 1 psi for every 10 degree F.

Another vote for the EezTire temperature and pressure monitor system - saved my bacon twice now on the 8280WS. Got it after a blowout on the old Jayco.
