Pain In The A** -- Solved!

So, this question has been on the back of my mind for a while now. "What if I get a flat tire?"

Well it turns out that getting the spare tire out from under the Chevy Silverado truck is a huge pain in the a** and it could take anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour providing you have the right tools and you're not stuck on a soft surface like dirt or gravel.

So...last week I had to take the truck into my mechanic for repairs. While there, I asked him to remove the spare tire, remove the entire freaking assembly and just throw the tire in the bed of the truck.

When I came home I realized that I need the space the tire was taking up for my normal junk hauling job. So I went to Home Depot, got me some chain and VOILA! - tire is now easily accessible and out of the way :-)

BTW, check out these videos of how much of a pain getting the spare tire is.
