Anyone know if the 2019 come with nitrogen filled tires? If they did not is it worth it to get them refilled with it?

My '19 Limited came with nitrogen, but it was a dealer upsell/add-on that I didn't have a choice on. I'm sure it has some merit, but I don't think it's much of a big deal. You can get it done at certain tire shops for really cheap tho if you feel (or someone provides a good argument!) like you need it.

Just an FYI but regular good ol free air is already 78% nitrogen. I definitely wouldn’t pay a dealer extra for it.

I always thought the whole N over O2 thing was a giant gimmick. For real, is there any data that supports it?

You could have told the dealer to remove the nitrogen and refill the tires with air.....

You should also have green valve stem covers for nitrogen filled tires

They want to sell this so you are married to them and need to go back every time you need to inflate a tire.

Exactly. That way they can do their complimentary inspection and find something to charge you money for.
