Re: Crazy gas mileage rambling
zombies. the starving masses. earthquake. emp strike. fukashima ( I live beside san onofre)
Its sort of humorous, but not really when you think that gas trucks deliver gas daily. grocery stores are stocked daily and dont last the weekend of memorial day much less a hurricane. can you image LA/OC with the biggest concentrated population of **** bags, rapists, theifs and general scummery in the civilized world, all hungry, sick, hurt? yea im planning on getting the f out of dodge. I dont stay awake nights thinking about it but it would be idiotic to buy another iphone when you dont have at least 3 monthes food in your house. imnsho. |

Re: Crazy gas mileage rambling
In these type of scenarios which I spend too much time thinking of for unrealistic reasons, I think a van is better than a truck because for some repairs you don't have to leave the safety of the vehicle.

Re: Crazy gas mileage rambling
4x4 van would be nice. I was just worried about having all that fuel inside which is why i lean toward truck vs blaszer or van.
I was also thinking from a repairs on the road standpoint a 73-?? whatever. Theres less and less 67-72 out there. Tons of late 70s early 80s. If you were to break a u joint, driveshaft, hub etc it might be easier to find one of those. |

That is the beauty of our trucks, there isnt a whole lot to them, mechanically and electrically. What is there can usually be found on another, even newer vehicle. Spark plugs, wires cap, rotor, tires, wheels, drive shafts. Short of blowing the motor or breaking the shaft on the trans, it can be fixed relatively fast and easily. I think the same for 73-78 trucks, ford and chevy. Just my opinion. I have put some thought into this, its always in the back of my mind, just what would happen. I would guess with the way the world is going right now that more and more people will be thinking along these lines as well.
