Ok, so im getting ready to pull the trigger on a new boat (Stratos 294 Pro XL '06 model).  The boat comes with a single axle trailer.  Do you think the package should come with a spare tire/wheel?  I believe it should.  I think its silly to not come with one.  Tell me what you think.  Thanks!!

Spare tires are optional.  You can negotiate that into the deal if you want.

mine didnt come with one...cost me 250 for matching tire and rim >

i bought a nitro a few yrs back and the spare tire was extra$$

yeah, i understand they are optional i just wondered if you felt they should come equiped with them.  Let me put it this way,  when i was dealing with the sales manager a week ago we were going over prices and such and i wanted to make sure the boat came with a spare.  Well i finally spoke to him over the phone and we agreed on a price.  But on the downside for me i was so excited about the new rig i failed to make sure it was going to come with a spare, although he said it would previously.  Every other rig on the lot has a spare.  I guess we'll see on saturday when i bring the check.  Hopefully he wont let a spare tire kill the deal.
