I have been using the portable battery and tire sealer that came with the hybrids. It fills truck tires with ease obviously and the gauge is accurate. GM discontinued the tire sealer but that's not why I bought it and never had to use it anyway.

I have 6 or 8 of these:
My car, wife's, kids, grandchildren. All have been great for 5+ years. LIKE that they screw on and stay on until you unscrew.
One granddaughter told me, "Hey Grandpa, I finally fixed that tire that I was blowing up every morning for 3 weeks.."
Most were given as Christmas / Birthday gifts.

Had a ton of Dewalt tools so went with the Dewalt. Can't complain. Take it with me on long road trips and off road excursions as well. Allows me to "set it and forget it" as I rotate tires or other chores it will inflate to what I set it at and then stop.
I gave them away as xmas gifts too a few years ago.
The VIair 300p is the BOMB! I love mine, can't go wrong with that one.

If you have DeWalt 20V, or 60V batteries, they have one that's about $107.00. It's great. It's model (DCC020IB)
You power it on, set the PSI you want, and press the start button. Not the fastest thing, but will get it done. Of course I have larger, 5aH batteries, etc. So it can handle a number of inflations if needed. Used it to re-inflate a flat i got on the road, until my shop could patch it. Now I often keep in the truck, just in case. I've even put my Tahoe tire to 40psi, no problem. Has accessories for many more tasks.https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07H39S9JQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

I went back in time. I went back to a 5 gal tank. It's portable, quick, and easy.
I have a can of Fix-A-Flat, and AAA, for emergencies away from home; but haven't needed either one in this century.

Times 2 on the dewalt, plenty of air for big tires and well built, you get what u pay for nowadays.
I’d also consider an on-board in the engine compartment but it would best go where my second battery is.
I have to admit for the couple of years my wife had her 06 Envoy Denali, that feature made me keep asking myself why GM didn’t put it into the bigger trucks.

GM minivans like the Montana also had an onboard compressor with a port to fill up tires and footballs from inside the cab. They also had 120v outlets. Was going to do it but the GM portable air compressor works just fine and came with the football filler too.

Dewalt 20v tire inflator works great.

The self holding tire stem clamp and auto shut off are a huge deal in case you’re sidetracked or need both hands to hold the bead up until the tire can hold air.
I like the bottle of nitrogen and regulator. Works without power. Fastest fill up you can get and won’t generate heat. Doubles as a fire extinguisher in a pickle.
Wife will love the Nitrogen bottle because it’ll unclog that drain with a rag or solid rubber ball over the hose.
