Of course, I just got my Blazer back on the road for the first time in 4 1/2 years.
Tires, Tubes, whatever, will leak down slowly.
The thicker the tire/tube, and with the more volume the slower it will leak down.

On my bike, I'll monitor the pressure regularly, but will only pump up once a month or so. But, I also let the pressure vary considerably, probably somewhere in the range of about 50 to 110 lbs.
