It says "35 PSI" on my door jamb too.

I had mine at 35, but just discovered that my dealer reduced the pressure to just 26 PSI in all four tires when I brought it in for an oil change. I am going to guess, that the gas-only Mariners use 26 PSI (anyone know for sure).

Well, I just ran to the gas station today, and refilled all four tires back to 35 PSI.

I am not too happy that they did this. For me, yet another mark in the "ah sh*t" column for my dealer's service dept.
