Default from what i know...the jack sucks and driving on a spare sucks

i have roadside assistance for a few more years, although that sucks too. LOL.

so i figure i'd take my chances and get service if it did happen...maybe in the winter, i'd put the spare tire back in...but for the summer i'll take it out.

Default I checked mine the other day. >>>

and guess what i found out. somebody already took the jack and the toolkit (at least most of it)out of the car. ...and a spare tire is not much worth without the jack is it?!?!

and on a side note:
If you have a flat just call roadside assistens i believe....and they will take care of you....(in any position that is.........)
