For a really long drive like that, I'd consider putting the spare back in my frunk, as it would suck to have a blowout in the boonies.

I don't do a great deal of driving that would take me outside of civilization (i.e. more than a 30 mile tow to a tire shop), so a radial tire patch kit and a mini compressor have replaced my spare tire, jack, tools, etc.

The frunk is MASSIVE without the spare. By massive, I mean that I fit in it - 6'2, 215. I wouldn't want to travel that way, but I had to try...
