Ramblings of a wanna be prepper -
"Real" truck. I get emails from no grid survivor and ask a prepper and other sources. A cataclysmic event will change life as we know it. For us, it will either be fire (we have been on Level 2 and Level 1 Evacuation status twice in the last four years) or the big one - Cascadia Subduction Zone going off which will leave us homeless. Should the latter happen and we survive, we can plan on no water, no electricity for 6+months. Bridges will be out. A distant nuclear event would result in no food or services in my area. The most scary thing would be an EMP attack--structures would be intact, but everything will be disabled, unless there are no electronics involved.
Yup this would run, but there would be no gas available (as it is, my area is 3 days away from not having propane--so much for my 20KW generator if it survives whatever)
Safest recourse would be to get two mules.... Oh, forget it - we won't be going anywhere.
That old GMC truck is the latest acquistion this summer. It's sitting in the garage until the boat comes home after major upgrades. We won't be playing if there is an EMP event
