And if you read the specifications for the machines they use at places like Costco you'll notice that the machines can only produce 95% nitrogen at best. So you still have 5% of some random gas that expands and contracts exactly the same as nitrogen...

I just received a coupon for that from MB yesterday. Free refills for life..lol! $69
A local dealer sent me this e-mail... seems like a bargin.
Dear Robert,
Compressed air can be a tire's worst nightmare. Air is usually oily and wet, a nasty combination that over time destroys tire rubber compounds - not an issue with NitroFil, which contains less that 2% oxygen and is completely moisture free. Tires will stay at a consistent psi and will not be influenced by external forces of heat and cold.
Here are some benefits you may get with using nitrogen:
• Better fuel consumption and more miles to the gallon
• Extended tire life and increased tire mileage - Tires last up to 25% longer
• Smoother ride with better handling, braking and steering
• Fewer breakdowns, blowouts and tire fatigue
• Better stability and decreased rolling resistance
Did you know 90% of tire related accidents are caused by under inflated tires?
Did you know under inflated tires can adversely affect braking, handling and steering?
Operating a vehicle with just 1 tire under inflated can affect gas mileage and reduce that tire's life by 10,000 miles.
Also, according to Michelin and Goodyear, running tires at 20% under inflation can reduce the tire's life by up to 50% and affect fuel consumption by 30%.
The U.S.Department of Energy reports that 4 million gallons of gasoline are lost every day due to low tire pressure. Every day! You’ll burn 10% more fuel if 1 tire is just 5 lbs. low.
So, what are you waiting for? If you own anything with wheels that previously had air in them, it makes great sense to use NitroFil. To learn more about filling your tires with nitrogen, click here.
Hurry in and get the latest advancement in tire inflation! It will provide up to 97% nitrogen in your tires. For a limited time, we will perform this fantastic service for only $69.95 tax*.
I can get my tires inflated for only $70 + tax... wow.

Humm... I hate to be the one to break this to you "Mr. Statistician", but I don't believe your answer is correct. Let's see... 100% minus 78%..... borrow from the "1"… now borrow from the "10".… OK.… subtract.... OK.... subtract.... OK.... got it! The answer is 22%. I may not be a statistician, but I did drive past a Holiday Inn Express once!
