BUG OUT Vehicle. What do you got???

[Rabies]

When TSHTF I'll probably be at work with a motorcycle parked out front. All the BOV in the world won't help when it's at home.

This is a fun topic and all, but really, unless you drive your BOV everywhere or you're always at home sitting in it, what good will it do?

when TSHTF......

bicycle. doesnt need gas, faster than walking, or if youve got alot of gear you can jsut sling your bags over the bike and walk it along much easier than you can carry it.

remeber, not alot of gas stations are going to be open. best to jsut stay off the roads, stick to the woods, no loud engines going, nice and quiet.

now, if you have an opportunity to yoink a UN 2.5 ton truck stocked with nutes and gear toss that damn bike ontop of the MREs and gtfo out of dodge city.

Extended cab, Chevy 2500HD 4x4 P/U with cap on back.

Have had to use it twice now to Bug Out of my area due to hurricanes. (Rita/Ike)

All my extra stuff goes in the back, and any family members that may need a lift in the cab with me.

Once there thogh I have a good getting from place to place without getting on any roads vihicle. Its an 88 Suzuki Samurai. She will take me anywhere I point her and do so very eficiently.

My Samurai is still pretty much stock, but I have been contemplating putting one of those racks on the back to increase the amount I can haul. Like my sig on Toyota Nation says about my Samurai, "Treading where no Jeep can follow...."

Ok I'll play. Here is one of our BPV. Her name is BigUgly. Born in 89, and I dont have pictures of her sisters.

California and Nevada for sure. Lots of game if you know where to go. Any places in particular in California you liked? One of my favorite places to four-wheel, shoot, and poke around is the Old Woman Mountains in the Mojave east of 29 Palms.

Used to hunt up near Hole in the Wall in Mojave years ago also in Cable Canyon, Blossom Peak, Onyx Summit,Clark's Ranch, Warm Springs and the Pinnacles in Berdoo County.

It will do alot of good. Many work pretty close to home. If weather or other disaster required you to get out....you drive home, load up and go. It is a moot point for many as their home is the best place to stay, but if circumstance forced you to leave, it is nice to have a vehicle that hauls alot, tows alot and can cover nearly any terrain.

Keep a fresh spare on your BOV's. Don't forget a good jack and lug wrench.

i wouldn't consider a soft-sided jeep as a good bugout vehicle...
