Something Duke said in the "pick a car for the rest of your life" thread, made me wonder what exactly folks would choose to drive if the world were suddenly full of zombies.
Zombieland (a solid movie), tackles this problem and answers with a Snow-Plow Cadillac Escalade and a Hummer.
or would you take the Resident Evil (not a solid movie) approach?
Let's assume it's just you and your immediate family. If there are multiple drivers in your family you can pick multiple cars, but keep in mind that splitting up is never a good idea in a horror movie. If you're single, you might want to save a seat for the inevitable love-interest that the plot will introduce.
For the sake of this hypothetical, assume that the gas situation is essentially stagnant. All of the gas/petrol in the world is as it is now, but it won't stay good forever. You can siphon it from other cars or fill up at a gas station (until the power dies... soon), but you have to assume that the gas in the world will go bad at some point. Also, siphoning takes valuable time where you can get attacked from behind by flesh eating zombies.
One more rule, you can't pick anything you can't find in your country. Don't assume you can ship your favorite car over from Africa. The car not only has to exist in your nation, but you have to know how to find it.
So with that in mind, what's your transportation of choice for surviving the apocalypse?
