Keep those spare tires inflated

[bruceha_2000]

A month or so back there was a thread about how to keep the spare tire inflated. I had never thought to check the one in my Odyssey in 9 years, nor my wife's Subaru in 7. Both were SO low, you couldn't possibly have driven on them.

My wife called me Monday to say she had a flat. I claimed that she let the air out so she could drive my Prius, but she denies it :-)

We knew the tire was leaking and I had just put air in it Sunday, but it was FLAT and she had to pick up my daughter for an appt. in 30 min. If I had not gotten a heads up here, I would have been hanging around waiting for AAA to come pump that sucker up. I had filled it to 60 psi back when I first found it uselessly low. It had already dropped to 56 psi Sunday and I put it back at 60. You can bet I'll be checking those spares every couple of months from now on.

So thanks again to Danny for running PC and to all the helpful people here. I am definately getting a good return for my sponsership.
