I thought about it. Always wondered if i could get it out if i wanted tho, with that damned mach 1000. Eitherway, i've got AAA gold, i'll let them tow me for free . Actually, i probably wouldn't since the last 3 flat tires i got, i didn't..

take it out, i took mine out along with that fake rear seat that only a human with no legs could sit in, i noticed a difference or maybe its in my head. if you have a cell phone go for it, you can alwyas call for help or even just some fix a flat...if all else fails just pray while your driving lol.

well now i started thinking... wont less weight on the rear tire mean less traction? because i was reading aboujt the battery relocation kit and that puts more weight on the rear instead of taking out the spare which would be less? what do u guys think. Im sure some tires would fix that but with stock tires...

well I replaced one of the wheels on my stang and use the old one as a spare.. For some reason I never took out the donut spare. I drive around with two fuggin spares (a donut and a fullsize). Stupid I know... but at least I know where they are right DAN??? just playin! Anyone know how I could fit that fullsize spare in the wheel well, have to do some serious cutting I bet! It takes up my whole trunk, its small enough being a convertible and all. All my stuff has to go in the back seat.
