Option for no tire on back.

[kevinmehta]

love the back open/close hatching but would love option to detach rear tire for everyday use.

The Chysler Pacifica does not come standard with a spare tire. I couldn't wrap my head around that when we bought ours in 2019, so we ordered ours with a "spare tire kit". It deletes the built in vacuum in the side panel of the cargo area and adds a deflated spare donut and air compressor.

The first time I discovered my new Lincoln didn't have a spare was when I went to place all the things I normally would pack around the spare tire well. When I lifted the mat I found this very useful selection of cubbies and in the very middle an air compressor with a fix-a-flat type replaceable canister when needed. Didn't really miss the mini donut spare.

I just love the way it looks and that one time we were moving cross country. Getting ready to drive 1995 miles from California to Illinois and I had a flat tire on my Jeep. Like 4 hours before we were supposed to get on the road. Ended up being a nail but I did not have time to figure that out. I mean my house was empty. The moving van had already left before us and I needed to get to Illinois to sign the papers on the new house. We threw the spare on and I drove the whole way praying we didn’t need another spare because my spare was flat. . I want my full size spare.

This is why I am campaigning for a removable tire carrier, trips just like that. I can get the Traveler in the garage with a tire carrier on. You just need to go through some gymnastic type move to get into the garage from the house. Removing the carrier gives me another 17".

Be like the other 45% who just park in their driveways because their garages are filled with “stuff” or used as additional living space. Then your space problem is solved

Or if you have a basement you throw all the stuff in the basement. My garage is pretty empty and we can get 3 cars in just fine. But don’t go in the storage part of the basement.

Nope. Our three vehicles are always garaged. We have overhead racks for stuff, and yes they are full.

Here in Florida you will be hard pressed to find a home with a basement.
