Last time I used Ford's 1-800-241-FORD roadside assistance it took 30 minutes for them to arrive - not too bad. It was for a lock out. I actually don't mind changing my own tire, but certainly don't want to have another. Come to think about it, the last flat tire I ever had was in my Mach 1 back in 1983 or so.

For my '00 GT, I ditched the factory jack and bought a small hydraulic bottle jack and 4-way lug wrench. Way better than the factory stuff. I remove my wheels often to clean the back sides (hard to clean when still on the car due to the brakes).
