Default Highway tire pressure

About to make the 7 hour trip to Moab this Saturday. I usually run 28psi around town. Should I increase for the trip?

I run 28 psi around town and bump it up to 32 on longer trips. Better gas mileage and I worry a little about lower psi at sustained higher speeds, although that may not be justified.
