OK, let me see if I've got this straight, you're in the middle of no-where, it's 87 degrees outside with humidity to match. Why would you need the excuse of a flat tire to need a beer? A cold 6-pack with the A/C running sounds more fun to me. And tell the tire tech to bring you out another since he's taking so long. Damn son.
I agree Bro, but no beer in the cooler. No stores within 10 miles either way I would go. And the Wifey would not entertain the idea of her going to get some.

Havn't had a flat since about 1989. Wanted to check the FPDM so I got the owners manual out to find out where the tools are. Read the instructions and then assembled the tools to lower the spare. It had not been down since new (2004 150) so it was pretty cruddy.
The tire iron really sucks. Need to carry a large 1/2" drive ratchet or breaker bar. I normally have a tool box in the back so no problem. For me, I will use the scissor jack if necessary rather than carry a hydraulic. Have enough other stuff I haul around.

Lol try changing the passenger rear tire on a 99 powerstroke with a 27' triple axle flatbed holding 18,500lbs of steel.. That's a good time... We used the trailer jacks to help out a bit haha
