That's a really good deal. I've had good luck with Viair myself. The worst that has happened with my 400P is that the zipper on the bag is giving out after 8 years of abuse.This thread got me looking at options some more this morning, and I found a deal currently available.
The Viair 450P Automatic is currently on sale for $245 (normally $300), which makes it cheaper than the 400P.
Do your research before buying obviously, but from what I have found Viair compressors are well regarded - basically a mid-grade alternative to ARB. For someone like myself that will just be getting into off-roading with the Bronco, this is a good option.
Details...I'm not sure if you were joking or not but this compressor draws 9.5 amps so it's a no go.
My first times out I always tried to avoid airing down thinking it was just a hassle, then once you do it you realize home much more traction you have and if nothing else a smoother ride. So honestly, just expect to air down every time, you'll be glad you did.Interested in learning a bit as I plan to start wheeling once I get the Bronco. I have zero experience airing up & down and am trying to learn about the requirements of a compressor and when to air down for rocks, sand, lumpy trail or mud.
Have to keep an eye on this thread for compressor solutions, prefer a standalone vs a built in solution for my occasional needs. Once addicted to wheeling that may change
If someone can tell me when its appropriate to air down and to what psi? That would be awesome. Thx
The stock inverter is too small. From other posts on the forum it looks to be 150 wattsDetails...
Thanks for the suggestion and link. I just clicked the link, added it to my Amazon cart, set it as save for later and there it will wait as an option for when the Bronco gets delivered.This thread got me looking at options some more this morning, and I found a deal currently available.

Sounds about right. Can charge a cell phone but not for pulling amps. Probably first fuse to go when hair dryers and air compressors get plugged in.The stock inverter is too small. From other posts on the forum it looks to be 150 watts
