The biggest pain for us is constantly having to monitor Tire Pressure, keeping them in-spec and keeping them equal. I've been waiting for the perfect shop tool to inflate tires, and finally someone came out with one. This thing inflates and deflates up to 5 tires at once. And you can monitor the inflation for each separate tire in real time. Just got ours in last week, and it's already saved us time and money. If more people would create tools like this, it would eliminate loss of fuel efficiency, and unnecessary tire treadware. While it won't force everyone to look more in detail at the importance of proper tire inflation, it'll certainly put many in the right direction.
You should take a look.
