A kit like the TireMinder Smart TPMS for RVs # TPMS-APP-6 which has 6 sensors would work great for what you are wanting. You'd be able to monitor the air pressure in the trailer as well as your truck from your smart phone!

I attached a review video for more info on this kit for you to check out as well.
