I agree with Kevin, and I carry a hand pump. It doesn't take long to inflate a tire.
In my modern car, I do have one of the small 12 volt electric direct drive pumps, which was made in Chicago, but all the small pumps I've seen for the past 10 years are gear reduction and very noisey and cheaply built.
