Log 9: Bug Out Vehicles

Monday, April 19, 2010

The last part of my bug out plan is the best part of bug out in general, pimpin' out your vehicles!

It will be very hard, if not impossible to get from point A to point B without a good, hardy, incredibly modified vehicle. Many of the your specs will be tailored to your preferences but there are four non-negotiables when prepping your wheels.

Fuel:
     Gas and other sorts of fuel are going to be scarce. It will be important for your to have a gas efficient car, tote the fuel or at least be able to soundly plot your fill up locations.

I am going to utilize the first two. My car will be modded to run on vegetable oil and I will tote extra along with me.

Speed:
      Your car needs to be at least faster than the trail of undead. That's a given.

Fortification:
      You are going to need a car that can withstand more than a punch through the windshield and be able to take some hardcore zombie hit and runs.

I am talking steel extended push bars and siding, bullet proof glass and of course, working seat belts.


Cargo Space
       You are going to need to tote your supplies and party. Make sure you have room for both.


I have put quite a bit of love, time and work into my car. It should look something like this any day now.


 Well my fellow survivors this is it. I have prepped as much as humanly possible. All there is left to do is to maintain preparation and wait. . .
