Hello Friends,

I was camping with my wife last week in South Florida's Big Cypress Preserve, serious Everglades for anyone who has never been! We got to our camp site, set up and we noticed the back right tire was stone cold flat, a screw in the road. We lifted the hatchback and lifted the old carpet and there it was, the 23 year old SpaceMaster Vredestein collapsable spare. The 'Made in Holland' beauty was rested and ready to get pumped up. We bought the car used and someone has the orignal pump so a Craftsman 12v did the trick. The car sat for 5 days of camping and then it made the 58 mile trek back to Naples with all of our gear in the car and in a top carrier. I repaired the flat today, deflated the Vredestein and bolted it back in the hole. I hope it's there again in the future if I need it again.

Auf Wiedersehen meine Freunde
