With a floor jack, my cordless drill and a pipe to use as leverage, I can
put the spare on in under 15 minutes, less than half hour total on and off.
If I leave the tires on the vehicles when they need service, it's hours of
waiting to get into a bay. I don't have that kind of patience.


I used to average about 3 tire changes a month when I towed stuff all
over the south. Mostly trailor tires, but the cordless and floor jack
made my average roadside stop less than 10 minutes. My wish list does
have a cordless impact on it, but I don't have such a need for it
anymore, other than man-toy desire, of course.
