Does your newer model car have a spare tire?

2012 camaro ss, still on original tires. No spare.
No spare with my box truck either. But that's okay. I ain't changing a hundred pound tire on the side of the road.

Firstly, I really don't want a "newer" model car/truck. I have spares in all my cars. Even my Challenger.

I consider my 2007 Lexus LS 460 that I bought last month a late model car. I've never owned anything newer. I was digging around tire well trying to find the socket for the locking lug nuts, and was amazed to find a full size spare. Got to wonder if I can still lift one of those. It wasn't a problem with my Imperials 30 years ago, but that was then. I'll never forget arriving from a flight at Chicago Midway in single digit weather, and finding a flat on the '62. The upside was I got away with driving home on the 30 year old bias ply spare, thanks to the lack of heat.

I don't know if any of my cars since 2014 have a spare.
2014 Caravan ?
2021 Pacifica ?
2023 300C ?
2023 Hellcat ?

The spare in my Dodge Caravan was under and a bit forward of the front seats. Underneath the floor, as in outside getting dirty. Two inch sized button is removed from the floor, and it cranks down somehow.

My newest car is a 2005. Full sized spare. I remember my neighbor complaining about his new Jeep not having a spare last year but I thought it was optional. I can't remember the last time I had a flat but since all of my cars have a spare, I look at it as an insurance policy. If you have good insurance, you seldom need it. Go without and you will need it next week.

I think that is Bubba Smith that Al Bundy is trying to molest.
Modern times it is Mighty Williams that you need to get past.

Better than the BM's I had. 2 out of the last 3 had run flats with no spare.

I thought he was talking about his bowel movements.

Full size spare in this one,

Included with a GT Premium option.
(Hope I've not disgraced the pages of
this forum by posting this pic).
I worked in the fleet department for
an electric utility. I spec'd and ordered
hundreds of vehicles over the course
of ten years. Over that time it was
evident as to the different
manufacturers cost cutting measures.
Engines left 1 quart low, windshield
washer bottles half full, differentials
with just enough lube to keep the
bearings from turning blue, and
instead, leaving these shortcomings
to dealer prep. (the cost passed on
to the consumer).
I had a conversation with a factory rep
as to why full size spares were being phased out. He said it was for EPA
ratings and weight savings.
Of course I believed him....(s)
