I think the system could be a whole lot better then what it is. I am aware it is big bother forcing that system into the cars and trucks of today. Im still not sold on the idea that there is no way to defeat it though. We have no worries of failing inspections here as we dont have them.

I have a 2013 F150 Lariat w/Max Tow & HD Payload. I have lowered the tire pressure from the recommended 55frt/60rear to 35 psi and the TPMS has never gone off. Does Ford only have one set of TPMS sensors that they use.
On other vehicles I own if the pressure drops about 7psi (35 to 28) you get the warning. I can't imagine running my pressure down to 28 psi before I would get a warning on tires that could be inflated to 80psi. I tow between 10-11,000lb fifth wheel.
