Better to have and not need than to need and not have.

That is the way it is for everything. I worked at a plant that was
built about 1965. At that time there was a spare part that looked like
a big auger. It was about 10 feet long and a foot in diameter. It laid
around in the way up to about 2005. We got a new plant manager that had
us get rid of all things we had not had to replace in the last 5 years.
Out went the auger. Wouldn't you know it , a month later it was needed
to replace a bad one. Same as with another piece of equipment . I
forgot what it was, something like a 20 HP motor and gear box. It was
sold as scrap. Before it left the plant site it was needed and we had
to buy it back for a lot more than it was sold for.

I have not seen it, but heard that some new cars do not even have a
spare tire now,but come with a can of Fix a Flat. Might be fine for a
nail hole, but if there is a large cut in the tire,itwill be useless.
With spares, if it has NOT been needed in over 5 years is the time
to KEEP it, not throw it, unless the machine the spare is for is no
longer in use.
