GL Tire pressures

Does anyone use tire pressures other than the recommendations in the gas filler door?
I had my GL320 CDi in for service at 35k miles (I do half interval oilchanges) and asked for the tires to be rotated.
I rotate the tires every 5000 miles. They did the rotation but the car came back with 50 psi in each tire. The dealer had no explanation for it--but I guess they had a pretty strong talk with the kid who did the tire rotation.

I do find that the car handles better with slightly more pressure such as 42 psi all around. I am on my second set of tires. I had a set of Pirelli Scorpion tires installed at 25k miles to replace the Conti tires.

Does anyone have any other tire pressure experiences?
