where would you put a 7x15 with 205/65 or 215/65 spare?

do let us all know how you get on....please

no, but you can buy red diesel for your heater from a boatyard. if the cost is bothering you - - use a seperate tank for the heaters fuel.

i don't know if i was unclear the first time, or you're being sarcastic?
