Welcome Matt.
"......I have heard of the nitrogen leaking out of the compression chamber. ..."
I think you mean leaking out of the gas ram. And yes, like the gas springs/ram that hold up car and van hatch backs, etc, they can develop leaks, but it's very rare. From what I've seen posted in the past year on this site and others, a leaking ram is much less likely than springs breaking. And gas rams have other advantages too.
Like Rocker1 says there's alot already been posted about likes, dislikes, problems and how they were solved, plus alot on accuracy. Scroll back through the pages, or use the search and type in "Trail" and then also try "gas ram" and you'll get a ton of info.
