1995 K2500 Suburban 4wd kept with minimum of a half tank (150 mile range minimum). Wire cutters always in the back.

Where I'm going, I don't need roads :teeth
 
Dam i went shopping yesterday and forgot the TP until rereading this thread! Dam this getting old is hell!
 
imo, i think it's smart to be prepared for a natural disaster, event, or power outage but highly doubtful we'll see an end of the world scenario...

nope, 120 miles for the half, 250 when full, actually measured freeway miles when in states that don't waste 10% of my fuel volume with ethanol. You've just got to remember that the "half tank" is roughly the size of two full Honda Fits :p

I have to take out a loan to actually fill it. When I pull into the station, the attendant closes early because the place is now empty and their profit for the day is made. I get accused of "hoarding gas" for getting a couple weeks' worth. I get a thank you card from the Royal Saud. It's too bad gas doesn't store well anymore or I could keep my retirement accounts in the tank as real "liquid assets".

You heard the Strategic Reserve was being filled up? that's because I wasn't driving this thing for a couple of weeks because the tags expired.

Insider trading protip: It'll be legal again next week. call your broker and get ready for gas prices to rise as I singlehandedly increase demand :p
 
I have 20 or so extra gallons of water, about a weeks or 2 supply of food, and some melee weapons.

I figure if shit gets really bad in PG, most of the houses are empty vacation homes anyway. :laughing
