I have a different opinion on carrying a spare. "tropical36" makes a good point, but I've always carried a spare for my coach, even when the coach was new. If something should cause the belt to come off prematurely, I'll have a spare while on the road. I do know that I have the correct belt as I took the number off the current one. Even if you can't do that, most of these belts are pretty common and I would rather have one and have a 90% chance it fits, rather than no belt at all.
I carry a spare belt, spare fuel filters and spare pins for the tow bar as a minimum set of spare parts. I have enough other parts to fix my coach and a couple others, but the minimum should be the belt and filters.
Even though you may not be physically able to change filters or a belt, they're nice to have on a Sunday afternoon. Often you can find a service truck or someone like me and any others on here who will help you change them.
