The TPMS for the truck, as I know right now, just gives you an idiot light on the system screen that a tire has low pressure. I haven't found a screen yet that shows all tire pressures for each tire like one sees with the monitor for the TST system.

The Ford TPMS is really a very very basic warning system. I suspect future trucks, don't know when, will have a better system with a screen to actually see each tire pressure and maybe the temperature.

The trailer tire monitoring system would show individual pressures on the trailer status screen on the dash (I don't have the sensors installed on the trailer so mine is not set up). On the F350 dually, the truck TPMS shows individual tire pressures under the vehicle tab on the dash.
