My last TT purchased new in 2012 had instructions to torque then re torque a certain number of miles later but nothing more than that. I never checked them after that initial requirement was met and never had a problem. But when I was in the Navy, one thing that was drilled into us was that every procedure was written in blood. In other words, if there was a procedure that said check the torque every 500 miles, you could bet somebody lost a wheel (or something) at 600 miles (or similar). So now I've got a camper that has different requirements for checking lug nut torque. I've got several good torque wrenches and it's an easy thing to do on a camper. I'm down there checking tire pressure before each trip anyway.
