PU truck tire pressure

Posted by Ken in Mich on February 12, 2006 at 10:41:49 from (207.89.155.82):

I had new tires put on my '98 Chev 1/2 ton Z71 pickup. I checked the pressure and only had 35psi in them and the tire sidewall sezs Max65psi. I called the tire dealer and they told me you go by the sticker inside the door, not whats on the tire sidewall. Sure enough the sticker says 35psi... I'm planning a trip and wondering if this is the right way to go, with the price of gas would I be losing MPG?
I've always put the max pressure in the past, have I been doing it wrong all these years? 35psi in a 65psi tire just doesnt make sense to me.
