My guess is that it will last 20K or so. I always carry the spare and a spare tube whenever I go on a long trip. We did a 9 day 3500 mile Pacific Coast Highway trip with it last year. For a two up trip it allowed us a few luxuries such as full size pillows, folding chairs, camera equipment, a small cooler full of cold drinks. I ended up hauling a few pieces of gear from others that went with us too! It handles the more than I ever anticipated weight load very well.
Surprisingly my fuel economy with the trailer in tow is about the same as without. It was actually better on some of the long highway stretches.
