Can trucks maintain air pressure at idle in a long panic stop?

The super singles you are referring to have been tested and are a fuel & weight savings but unfortunately they don't have the same weight acceptances where we travel so we can't use them on our units at this point.
The sad thing is there's improvements that can be made but many are cut off from us due to the rate at which government moves on things
