Just a reminder - Check your spare.

I stopped in a gas station today. Earlier in the day I had removed the bose system because I wanted to transport something big.

Since I had the bose out, I decided to take a look at the spare and sure enough it was out of pressure. I hadn't checked it in years.

The spare in my vert is even harder to get to and I don't think I've ever checked it in the 16 years I have owned the car. I think I will look at it tomorrow.

I guess they don't want anyone to forget the spare is on the car. You can't miss that yellow.

Does anyone carry one of those "fix-a-flat" cans in case they need the spare and it is flat? I've never known how well they work. I would think they would be useless for a 60 lb. mini-spare. Maybe I should start carrying my bike pump.

I do, I carry a can in every car I have.
It works great for pinhole leaks/ nail holes and such.
Its funny how some people think it will fix a real hole in your tire, I watched one of my friends and his dad empty two whole cans into a tire the other day, I just laughed and told them to save there money and time and just change the tire, there is no way that stuff was going to fix the hole in that tire.
It completely emptied in less than 10 seconds if that tells you anything about the size of the hole/slash that was put in it from road debris.
