Hi All,
Thanks "HarleyRider" for the endorsement. I spoke with the mfg. today, and they confirm what you said. I really appreciate the alternate source to buy it. Doran Mfg. charges $570 for the display with 8 sensors(4 for truck, 4 for trailer). The only drawback I could find is that the batteries are sealed in each wheel sensor, so that you can't replace them yourself. You must send the sensors back to the mfg. and they send new/rebuilt ones with new batteries back. Cost about $12-$15 per sensor. With 8 sensors that's over $100, but they say they last for about 3 years, maybe longer if you remove them between trips.

Thanks again for the info.
