No jack or spare in the Mustang ?! WTF?! I thought that was just a thing in those tiny gay cars like Fiats and Smart Cars. You didn't get the other wheels form over at Emmett Head did you?

Last 6 cars we've had, no jack or spare. I hate it. I can't remember if my Volvo had a spare or not but I think it did not...

When I was at the port some of the Kias and Hyundais came with a 12 volt tire inflator which was handy. Seems like one of them was the Niro which was a hybrid. If you open the hood on one when they're "Running" it sounds like a window unit running instead of an engine.
I understand that way back when they started using donut spares instead of real wheels and tires it was due to crumple zones and safety regs. So that one can sorta be blamed on the gubment. But there is absolutely no reason not to have a spare tire and tools for same in every vehicle.

I know it. Our last Mustang GT was back from 2013 and even back then it didn't have a jack or a spare.

We had a Mini Cooper S when they first came back redesigned. ‘05 or so model year. It didn’t have a spare but it required runflat tires. They rode like ass and were expensive. One thing I like about trucks is a full size spare.
