I've been using the one from Radio Shack (~$15) for 4 years, and it's been pretty accurate. Usually within 1 PSI from the tire monitoring system which I think is less accurate.

I ordered the one that Corvette Central carries. I have had it for 5 years and it is very accurate. It has a bleeder valve on it so you can bleed off pressure if it is too high in a tire. It is enclosed in a rubber protective shell and is very durable. I highly recommend this one.
