    Adding Valor TPMS Sensors to a Towed Vehicle

    We have the Valor TPMS on our 2026 London Aire 4595. In the manual, it looks like the system can also read "trailer" tires. My 2021 Blazer is due for tires soon. Has anyone installed a second set of sensors on their towed vehicles and added them to the coach TPMS system. Ken

    2026 Jeep Recon All Electric 4 Wheels Down Towing Capability

    Just announced, supposedly order-able this January. No V2H capability according to the dealer. Being able to run our coaches with that 100Kwh battery would be pretty amazing.. GM & Ford sell that already. But they don't have one you can tow 4 down yet.
