They buy an old Suburban (4WD preferably) and remove the doors for ease of entry and windows as well.

My question is there anyone building or customizing Bugout Vehicles as a Business. Not a real hands on guy with Auto Repairs and modifications. But I've got a little cash to spend on this item on my getting ready before the SHTF to-do-list.<br /><br />thanksAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836343905945224980.post-11987411740678127752011-11-16T13:55:46.850-06:002011-11-16T13:55:46.850-06:00What about a Baja bug????What about a Baja bug????Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836343905945224980.post-61235858048341589352011-10-10T17:44:23.089-05:002011-10-10T17:44:23.089-05:00Hi Bob,

I previewed your latest about vehicles Amazon and am hooked, as this is a subject near and dear to me (I have been a consulting engineer for military and civilian vehicle mobility and performance for over 35 years).<br /><br />I am anxious to get my scarred and grubby fingers on it....<br /><br />Best regards,<br /><br />BobAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836343905945224980.post-31069933931178335812011-09-02T12:30:24.599-05:002011-09-02T12:30:24.599-05:00Thanks Scott!

In my time as a boat captain I hated traveling North. It was always a rough go. I'm not so sure about heading to Hawaii in a SHTF situation. Tacking up the coast would be my choice over the long haul to my homeland.kwgbrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12854794163820560818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836343905945224980.post-73367613906915130182011-09-02T10:34:07.204-05:002011-09-02T10:34:07.204-05:00Hi kwgbright,

You could head west across the ocean to the islands or most anywhere you care to go. Sailing north up the California coast is difficult, depending on the season, and may be best accomplished by heading to Hawaii first because of the prevailing winds and currents. I recommend lots of reading and study as you prepare for this, and then spending as much time as you can on the boat learning seamanship and navigation before you need it in an emergency.Scott B.

I feel like we'd need to travel a good 600-800 miles to get to a well watered area with lower populations. I've come to the conclusion of purchasing a sail boat that I could moor in SD bay. It's a 20min drive from my home and work, I can store 150-200 gals of fresh water, 100 gals of diesel, and enough dried and can goods for a long while. I'm a ex-coastguard certified boat captain and very comfortable on the water. Where would you go if you were in San Diego, CA? Would you consider sailing as a good way North? I appreciate your time. <br /><br />kwgbrightkwgbrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12854794163820560818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6836343905945224980.post-53325996397520885102011-08-23T21:14:35.137-05:002011-08-23T21:14:35.137-05:00Looking forward to reading it....
