Question on new Ford E-450

We just ordered a Quantum JM31 today and are coming from a Class A diesel. The Class A's do not have tire pressure monitoring and that must be added by the owner. Just wondering if the new Class C Ford E-450 has tire pressure monitoring from the factory?

Bob

I recall seeing a video that they did, because I was jealous. Checking tire pressure on the inside dually is an inconvenience.

I see from your profile that your coach is a 2018 on the V10 E-450. What I am finding out is that the new E-450 with the V8 does have factory installed tire pressure monitoring.

Correct
2018 E450 did not have TPMS unless previous owner purchased it as add-on
It’s a fairly inexpensive mod (as mods go) if you truly want it.

From one Bob to another: Welcome to the forum, and congratulations on your new RV!

I Put EEZTire in for 500 bucks that does ten tires. Needed one with repeater.

There are some Chinese knocks offs on amazon for 50 to 150 bucks.

Digital or Analog?

Does anyone know if the new E-450 with new dash has a digital or analog backup camera?

Bob

TPMS has been available from factory on single-rear-wheel E-Series for years, but only since V8 upgrade on dual-rear-wheel as an option (all E-450 are DRW).

The “motorhome package” now includes TPMS option on DRW so you should be covered as long as RV manufacturer purchases the MH package with chassis. I would certainly confirm the unit you buy includes it rather than assume it does.

E450 Entegra

My 2021 E450 Entegra 31f has TP monitor. I also use a TireMinder system which I had on previous unit. It does provide additional info like temp and rapid air loss alarm.

I have a 2021 Quantum LF31 built on the E-450 chassis. It DOES have Ford factory TMPS.

Is it displaying pressure and temp on individual tires or is it like my f150 saying only
Tire low
With no clue as to pressure or temp or which tire?
Mine is just a dash light.

Picture of dash from Ford website shows individual pressure. I’m not sure if it can also display temperature. Everything is so much nicer than my old E-Series.

It looks like it also allows for manual shifting.
