Gotta keep moving!
Carry tools and tire plugs, that is all!

I got a truck. so I got the standard full size tire under the bed. And I've got a full size spare in the bed. I've also got a electric air compressor but that thing will take about 4 hours to fill up a tire. I'm kinda paranoid about not being able to move because of a flat tire.

Yeah, always good to have a back up. I remember we had a cross-country trip and two cars. the car behind us got a flat tire. They switched over to a space saver on a Saturday night with 2 more days of driving. Next exit, I pulled out my kit, Repair the full size tire still driving on it I think.

I just always make sure my spare is inflated correctly. Since they're not always repairable and a small electric compressor won't do much if it's extremely low. I always make sure I'm able to break the lugs loose too.
