Unless you're taking a 5-7 minute break between each tire to let the compressor cool off that sounds absurdly long. I have been running the dual compressor on a number of vehicles for years, at one point even with 37's and I have never ever come even remotely close to that amount of time. Also, that's a crazy high pressure for a tire on these vehicles regardless of it's load range rating.
My bad, tires are rated for 80 psi. I run 65 psi and will air down to 15 psi for trails. If it's late and I just want to get home from a trail, I'll just fill 'em up to 40 psi to get home.
The exact tires are: LT285/75R17 BFG M/T TA KM2
Here's the link that states the rated pressure: BFGoodrich Mud-Terrain T/A KM2 285/75R17
I've never timed how long it actually takes to fill them after airing down, but that's how long it feels like. I think I'm going to time it next time I air down and air back up. Get some real data instead of going by the seat of my pants. The first couple of tires air up quickly, but then the compressor is working hard to fill the others. That's without letting the compressor cool down. Technically I shouldn't have to but it would probably help.
At 65 psi, going up to South Lake Tahoe (where I'm at now) from San Clemente I average 15 mpg. That's with my roof top tent, loaded up with all our ski equipment and gear for 2 weeks. Albeit, all the ski resorts have shut down cause of the COVID-19. Never did get to ski.. AND we have season passes!!!!
sucks..... :confused:
 
I will research that one.....80# just seems like a lot of weight to hang on the barn door

But $625 price is nice.....will contact them along with looking from actual reviews from owners
Did you ever find out anything from them or from reviews?

Edit: Looks like the door hinge can handle it. Here is some quick research I did and posted over on CL:
