Looking for options to secure a spare tire (285/70/17) in the bed. Open to laying flat or upright. Want to be able to secure it to prevent theft as well, although I only plan to carry the tire when overloading. For every day driving, I've got a plug kit, etc. I suppose the most basic would be...

It was a sustained climb lasting about 1.5 hours with a few brief stops, gaining almost 5,000ft. The...
