I'd guess a boatload of us have needed to use the spare tire once or twice in a 10 yr span. Some ... never. Also a boatload of us pop the wheels off or have them removed annually or every 2 years (mileage dependent) as part of regular maintenance. Until the Level Up systems came along (and not all of us have Level Up) it was a PITA to remove all 4 tires at once as you had to jack up the entire fiver. So ... I accept your points in favor of tire rotation, but like several that have and will respond ... we just don't personally see going thru the motions.

PS ... I've been a wrench spinner by trade for over 47 years. I'm guessing I'm a cousin to a gearhead.
