but if you only need it - say once a year, maybe not needed


Just like the spare. I have a 2007 and 2008 truck and car that the spare
has never been on the ground, but don't intend on taking them out.
If you need it, you need it even if only once every 20 years.
Just like insurance.



Many cars now have a can of fix-a-flat instead of a spare. Useless when
you cut a sidewall like I did last December. It is the first time I put
a spare on in over 25 years, but I'd have not gotten home without it.
