Cool, thanks for the replies.
Until 2 weeks ago I've only had one flat while driving a car all my life (maybe 130k miles), and it was while I was mowing lawns. I came back from one job to my 2nd gen prius with a sidewall cut. I was 4 miles from home, put the donut on and finished my day of lawns. (yeah I had a rear hitch rack, custom built it to hold my 20" mower, worked great). I didn't even really notice the difference. I do check the pressure in the spare regularly or so I've tried.
Recently I picked up a thick screw with a dull end, from going into the center turn lane too early and hitting all the debris. It didn't leak until I pulled it out the next day. Easy plug fix that seems to not be losing any air.
Most of my driving has me stopping about once per mile, around town. I'll probably leave the donut, already getting 60mpg most of the time in my 3rd gen prius with watching traffic ahead and going the speed limit.
