Anyone ever find out if a jack comes with the spare tire package?
Since we all know the can of fix-a-flat comes with the car standard, anyone know if the spare tire package comes with a jack? Amazingly enough the specs don't say.
Anyone have any idea how a spare is actually going to fit in the trunk? The wheel with the flat certainly isn't going anywhere but the back seat (let's hope Mazda includes a plastic bag with the spare...)

From the picture I saw:
The new spare fits along the spine, directly behind the seat back, on the trunk floor and below the parcel shelf. Does that make any sense? The rearmost edge of the spare seems to be at about the same longitudinal postiion at front most edge of the trunk lid opening.
Anyways, the spare does have a plastic booty. Either, the car comes with a jack already or the spare comes with a jack. No way Mazda ain't including a jack. I imagine the jack goes below the floor with the tool kit.

Yes, i am. there is a description i read somewhere around here about how the inflation kit works and it mentioned the jack. also pics of the area in the trunk where the kit is kept show the jack in there with it.

Actually no, If you drink the tire sealant then it gives you the power to actually pick up the car and change the spare.

Save it for when you really need it. I heard that in addition to strength, it also gives you a four hour erection
To clarify. I believe the spare tire kit does not include a jack. Why? Because the stock car has a jack. I have used it several times. I do not have the spare tire kit. I've also used the pump several times and I can't believe it does not show psi. It shows kpa or some funky metric measure. I think kpa is kilo-pascal? I have not tried the fix-it goop either in a tire or as a power drink so YMMV.
