plans for the inevitable undead uprising
DelusionalBlues:
I've been drinking my own piss for 4 years now so I don't have to worry about that.
Boro, your truck sounds well-equiped, but how likely is it that you alone would be able to make the necessary modifications to it? Do you plan to roam the coasts, fleeing from city to city and hoping you'll find a gas pump that hasn't been emptied out already?
I would probably stick to the middle of the country, or perhaps a northern remote part next to water and has cold weather (does the cold slow down zombies? Could they freeze?) and enough vegetation and wildlife to support me for awhile - depending on the severity of the scenario, it's highly unlikely I would meet another human being again for my lifetime. Traps and rudimentary weapons would become more valuable to me than guns, since guns are noisy and require ammunition that might not be easily replaceable.
Scandanavian War Machine:
yes, they will freeze much much easier than us since they are not cirulating warm blood. cold places are good.

God fucking damn it, people!
Am I the only one here who's playing Resident Evil 3?
Boro_Bandito:
I admit, the super vehicle idea is once again best-case scenario/built on for a couple years type thing. And at first I'd probably be aiming for something along those lines Whip. Pickup with large cab or bed cover, Van, SUV or anything with storage space to me is still a far better idea than just a motorcycle to me for longer trips than one tank of gas will cover. I still think it needs horsepower and height though. Being in a low to the ground car I just don't think is a good idea. Zombies piling themselves all-around on top of it just seems a far too likely scenario.
And no, I'm actually planning on sticking to the southwest regions of the US, Utah, Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico. Myriad of small towns and even the higher likelyhood of havens in that region since it would take a longer time for an infection to reach that area (unless that's where it starts, then I might consider the north into areas of low-population in Canada, assuming they haven't found a way to keep the infection from jumping the border and have it on lockdown).
And as far as modifications to the vehicle would go, I've learned from my dad and from classes when I was still in high school how to weld and build shit, with a good set of power tools and the right materials I could perform the necessary upgrades.
Anyone think it would be cool to set up a basic checklist of skills it would take for the average person to increase their chances of surviving the zombie apocalypse? Things like knowing how to hotwire a vehicle, basic vehicle upkeep, foraging skills, knowing how to shoot a gun etc.
Boro_Bandito:
Not by bullets anyway. You stick a burning piece of petrol-soaked rag into on and it will.
Edit: I really really need to read the Zombie Survival Guide Damnit.
