Check the air in the spare!!
... and the other tires, too. Now that it's getting cooler, check your tire pressures, especially the spare. Mine was ~20 psi today. Make sure the spare will have air on that cold winter night when you need it most!

Great reminder Mike for those that may forget! I check my air pressures, probably more than most folks; at least each month, and check all the tires.
Hate that the SRT come with NO spare tire, NO jack and NO lug wrench, just the small air compressor and fix a flat!

I NEVER use fix a flat...that stuff will weld itself to your rim...tire shops in this area will sometimes charge you $6.00+ if they have to wire brush dried fix a flat gunk from your rim...
