Just curious if anybody is using nitrogen to fill up their trailer tires?

You basically go from 80% nitrogen to 99% with the nitrogen generators used for tires. The molecules are supposed to be larger which slows/prevents air pressure loss over time. With 'normal air' you get a 1psi change for every 10* temperature shift - not sure what it is with nitrogen but it appears to be less.
Same reason in commercial aircraft tires, less flux with temp/press changes.
