12 V Air compressor suggestions?

Looking for another 12 V Air Compressor to refill my SUV Tires. The one I had before was terrible... So much for Job Lot...

What kind of vehicle you running?
You might think about hunting down a York style compressor and rig it up engine driven.

They work great, I've helped out with putting 2 in jeeps for rock crawling.

Check out this link for some ideas for onboard air: http://www.jedi.com/obiwan/jeep/yorkair.html

Thanks for your suggestions. Really what I am looking for is a cigarette lighter compressor. I know that they are not powerful but I could use something reliable in that category....

you might be able to get someithing similar to what they use on 18 wheelers.. you can mount that right under the hood.. i can't imagine they would be too expensive.. problem with cigarette lighter pumps is that they are slow ..

just a thought

I heard somewhere that piping plover is indian for "tastes like chicken" ..
