I've got it working fine on my cars, but I had to disable the thrusters after an incident many years ago.

Seriously though I have used it in cars and seems to work well. However it was only ever billed when it came out as a means to stable pressure due to the lack of heat build up and was also supposed to give better mileage for the same reason. First I've ever heard of it giving a smoother ride and not really sure how it would actually achieve it. As Clarky and others have cumulatively said fine on passenger cars, the van, trailer etc that never need to fluctuate pressures but useless on a 4wd that sees offroad. And yeah good luck on the price reduction after all it's free not already built into the price. Bit like asking Macca's to give a discount on the the things you take off their burgers just liek they charge extra for any add ons. If only the world was that fair. First time I've seen it offered for "free".

Get them to put it in a beer for you while they are at it, latest craze apparently.

Only if you don't air the van tyres down as well, as you should if you tow off road.

I think it's a waste of money. As the fellas have said if you so up and down its also pointless.

The only time I ever used it was for track duties when I was racing cars. It saved having to try to low fill when cold to hit target pressures once they were running at full race temps.

I hear it's a good idea, well worth the initial investment.
Also, I read on a forum that changing the standard Jeep headlight fluid for a better quality brand is an improvement.

I run about 78% Nitrogen in all my tyres - works a treat.

I hope you get it compressed first, I believe that also helps.
I tried installing it in a vacuum once, but my tyres unflated.

Ok guys if you can stop clowning around for a minute lets get back to serious discussion. My mechanic wants me to instal a Hyclone stating it will compliment the nitrogen tyres and save me heaps of fuel what do you think.
