Can someone recommend me a good air pressure gauge?

I need an accurate air pressure gauge. Up for anything. Every single one of mine gives me a different reading, including my TPMS in my car.

I have a 1,400 mile road trip coming up and want to make sure that my pressure is right on the dot what it's supposed to be. I may put a few extra pounds in to help with MPG. Any thoughts on this?

I use one it has digital pressure on one side, tread depth on the other side, and it fits in my glove box.

Can't find a link to my exact one since its old but its something like this.

Works great, never changed the battery and have had it for many years. But yea, main reason I like it is its small and fits in my glove box along with a ton of other stuff lol

I use this one and love it because it goes "in-line" with the air hose so you can check the pressure while you're adding air. No need to keep swapping between the gauge and the air hose like you would with a pen style gauge.
