Looks the goods, but I wouldn't buy it on account of the steering wheel - it looks like a dinner plate.
 Can I get more technology in the vehicle too? I just don't feel there's enough...

Just saying - the roads in and out of major cities are going to be blocked in the event of a zombie apocalypse. Might want to think about something lighter, more manouverable and better on fuel.
Hope this helps. Nick* *has been working on his zombie plan for a number of years.

My plan would be a fast food venue, provided there is roof access and electricity. You have food and a 360 degree view to shoot the bastards!

The zombie apocalypse has already started - try negotiating a supermarket car park with pedestrians meandering aimlessly all over the place and you're sure to agree.

I've unashamedly thought about this quite alot and have been thinking of what I would do for quite some time now. To the point where I even found this website http://www.zombiesurvivalwiki.com/ (if link doesnt work type it in google), which has detailed plans on everything from self-defence against zombies and what weapons best suit a zombie apocalypse.
As for what car I would use, it would be something with a bit of poke yet enough room to store a lot of gear, so maybe an AWD turbo territory wouldn't half bad. |

Im getting prepped, i just bought my truck for it, big enough to kick a s s and small enough to get through tighter areas. Has the space to house plenty of food and water (and ammo) and is fuel efficient enough to get me the hell outta town without stopping.
Just need to accumulate the money for the rest of the mods that are needed
