I was a skeptic on tire pressure monitoring systems until I had it on my Subaru. But it did it's job by getting me to keep a closer eye on tire pressures. I used to check pressure every few months (or before a trip) but relied checking the tires visually on a daily basis. The downfall to that is by the time you can spot a soft tire, the pressure is WAY too low--like around 15 lbs. Fortunately it never became a safety issue. That said, considering what a pain some factory systems can be, I'd be very hesitant to install an after market one. How many times has this happened to you in how many years of driving? If a tire loses enough air in, say two weeks, to be an issue, you need a leak plugged. Checking twice a month should suffice.
