>>Have you never gotten a flat tire?

That's the thing: I do get a punctured tire... sometimes. Maybe every 2-3 years. Not critical, just losing pressure. Not urgent. Last time, local shop fixed it for $28. They gave me a little freezer bag with the nail that they pulled out of the tire.

Now, did I ever have a flat tire that needs a replacement like right now, with the spare tire? Well, I don't remember having that. In several decades of driving.

For the record, I do go to service to get regular maintenance, so every like 3-4 years or so I change tires. I guess that helps.
