OK, last trip after I pumped them up, using a handheld digital gauge, the TPMS read 65lbs on all four, as well when I started out.

I did nothing to them, and I don't recall if I took a reading on each tire first, this last trip....

I do know the first time the outside temperature was about 15 degrees warmer at that time, which I'm guessing means I hit 65lbs sooner than if it was say 50 degrees outside, yes?
