Check your auto-insurance; mine will flatbed a truck or car 100 miles (usually get you to a TireRack supplied store) for $75.00 a year; I use Haggerty, who farms it out to someone else, but I don't worry about spares anymore, a can of tire fix if it's minor and if it's significant, I prefer the flatbed tow to somewhere they can get a replacement within a day at most.
I don't particularly appreciate changing tires on the roadside with little Billy zooming by at 85 mph on his cell phone. It gives you extra storage space and lower weight, and I always forgot to check the tire pressure on the spares until they were about rotted out. However, I can not remember my last flat tire for at least 20 years. Off-road, different story, but then you're going to need special jacks; it best to have a winch, bullbar, and brush guard, and RIvian claims their trucks are so great off-road, and I have seen the YouTube videos proofing it, but offers none of the above.
Note to CEO: Scratch the E bicycles, contract out some off-road accessories, and get that camp kitchen and truck bed cover on the shortlist.
