That says to me that the base cost of the car included the tire on the 5th wheel that came from the factory (or else the invoice would have listed the added cost for 2 tire&tube).

I know the cars left the assembly line without a tire on the spare wheel. I've seen the pictures.

So if the base cost included a spare tire&tube but the car left the assembly line without them, when/where did the car acquire them? Did the dealer put them on?
