I know their is a topic about general tire pressure and their is a post about tire pressure during off-roading.
I know what the AV bible says but:

I would like to know what pressure fellow AVers use when you tow.

My personal habits for towing my 7000lb trailer are:

50lbs in the front and 80lb in the back.

p.s. I have a 2500 AV with e rated tires.
 
I keep the fronts at my normal 45# and the rears @ 70# when towing same 7000# load, towed once with only my normal 50# in rear and the temp of the tires was ok, but they trailer swayed a little, with the tires # 70# trailer sway nil.
