    car jack

    Tire iron

    I’m assuming a tire iron is a wheel nut key - has anyone ever owned a car that didn’t have these?

        It’s a nightmare. They have those mobile compressors instead. How am I supposed to get to the next mechanic if I have to use the compressor for every 2km? And then they have this puncture safe paste that the compressor can mix in, which turns a 10$ repair into a 200$ repair.

        It’s insanity! And using the compressor takes even longer than just changing the wheel!
