Since the Hummer EV Truck doesn't come with a spare tire, creating an emergency tire repair kit to throw in the truck for longer road trips is a good idea. The way I see it, if I have it in the truck, then hopefully I won't need it.
One of the easiest flat tire repair options is a tire sealant. It's not as good of a solution as removing the screw/nail and plugging the hole, but if you have your truck loaded up with your family and you need to make it to the next town with a tire shop, then a tire sealant is a handy option. Slime has a Rescue Emergency Tire Repair Sealant that works in line with your air source and has Thru Core technology to allow the repair liquid to flow through the valve stem. It files holes up to a quarter of an inch and is safe for use with TPMS.

Since the Hummer has 35-inch tires, I like the idea of using this tire sealant in line with my high-flow portable air compressor. A dinky 12v emergency tire compressor will take forever to fill up one of the big truck tires. Plus, having a wireless tire inflator is nice, so you don't have to fight with a power cord.

I might get fancy and do a hard case setup that holds my tire plug kit, Slime Rescue emergency tire sealant, and a Milwaukee tire inflator. That way, I don't have to think about gathering everything each time, and I can just grab the case and go.
