> And that's one thing about EVs here in general - they are coming with no spare tire but a flat tire repair kit

That seems to be the standard for all new cars, both ICE and EV; sometimes a spare is available as a paid option.

Which seems insane. But it is what it is.

Yep. My Lightning is the first vehicle I've had with a spare in a number of years. Even donut spares are getting much less common, not just on EVs.
