+1 for the above comment. Who here needs to call AAA to put on a doughnut spare?
I repeat: Good clothes, jungle-hot conditions. I've changed full-sized and donut spares on my cars in the past. There's no challenge to it anymore.
If I'd forgotten my phone, then I'd have had to grit my teeth and do it.
I grew up in Louisiana. I wouldn't want anyone to see me having a spare changed for me.
Its a macho culture down there.
I grew up here too (Gawd help me), but the city is a different thing from the country. If I'd done it myself I'd have looked like I just ran two miles in good clothes, and they'd have been filthy as well. Though I do have some work gloves in the trunk, so at least my hands would have been clean. Sweaty -- but not covered in dirt.
