Many New Cars Have No Spare Tires
Back then I worked for a small refrigeration outfit in Spokane, and driving the "Skud missile" about 80-90 mi round trip every day was taxing. I also had a part time job fixing coin op laundry equipment. ANY way one rainy afternoon after work, had a flat. Was headed out towards the supply outfit to pick up some laundry machine parts and had ANOTHER flat!!! "Going flat" decided screw this, it's about 1/2 mi to the tire store I'LL JUST DRIVE IT THERE!!! LOL
