Alright,lets say wherever you are, be it a well fortified prison, a hardware store, a Walmart, a bus terminal, or even your own home, what would you choose as your vehicle to get you through the zombie infested land unscathed and how would you mod it up to keep you safe?

Take your time and don't worry about suplies, there are plenty of ways to improvise the things you want, though keep it realistic. Chances are you won't find any RPGs or concussion grenades, and most likely no tanks either

I've always thought I'd be stuck in either a HArdware store. One of those HUGE Building supply kinds that have everything you would need plus a huge fenced off area and high shelves to climb. This would mean my personal preference of Fork Lift! Wrap that baby in chicken wire, make the roof the only way to get out of and into it and head out. Mowing down the enemy and perfect for food runs when you need to load a whole lot of food. More compact than a bulldozer, but I wouldn't complain if there was. Of course I: would load it with a nail gun to kill off zombies that tried to follow me back to the base, though we would have created a holding center at the base for me to drive in to, kill the zombies that make it in, and then let me into the main part. But yeah, that would be the ultimate food gathering vehicle.

Transportation:
Walking

It really does depend on how big the outbreak is though.
I'd be able to drive maybe when it starts
but cars would get all jammed up and whatnot.

I wouldn't try anything long distance on foot if it were the Dawn of the Dead style fast Zombies though

I fully agree with that!

If they can run
then you are screwed with any Transportation

Well, the absolute greatest form of transport would likely be helicopter. Above their heads and out of reach. Though noise, fuel, and size make it slightly troublesome. it can land almost anywhere, and the military ones have their own weapons.

Tanks are also a very viable option. You could easily crush through any number of zombies, and you'd be entirely safe inside with the hatches dogged. You'd likely have an ample supply of ammunition, and some water and food due to the fact they stock all tanks in case of emergency operation.

But, if they are runners, I'd say you're ******** on a bike, motorcycle, or foot. Truck or other off road vehicle with an enclased interior would be best.

Although it does seem to me that running zombies are a possibility, I liked Max Brook's arguement for non-running zombies because they have very poor motor skills and a horrible sense of balance. So running zombies in my scenario are not an issue. I've considered transportation by train and Lightweight Amphibious Airplanes. The newest Popular Mechanics featured them and with illegal fuel additions you could go for quite awhile and they're virtually silent in the air and landing (except for the splash).

All the fun of a hummer with more than 9 MPG.

monstertruck = good
military car's ( these with chaingun's at the roof.) = medium
tank's = medium
airplane = good
military helicopter = very good
boat = good
yatch = very good
very big boat (titanic size) = best choice


boat's are good choseof their abbility on drive on water and good supply carrying. the best choice!

car's are medium chose they can run over zombie's in small mob's and they are fast and u can get one almost everywhere.

motorbikes are bad chose they cant run over zombies and they cant carry much supplie's only good at transportation.

helicopter's and airplane's are good chose their ability at flying. can also cary supplie's and dont need a road. a good choice!

monster truck's are good chose they can run over zombies and their fast.
a good 2 choice

tank's are bad choice chose

Depends.

What sort of terrain? How populated?

Traffic is highly likely in populated areas. In that case, a car would be a deathtrap.

I want to learn how to operate a Powered Paraglider or an ultralight trike.

Both of those are pretty fast to set up. You need much less space and time to take off.

A bike is a must, I think.

Either of those could help me to get to my safe zone. Both have minimal fuel requirements, are relatively easy to use.

I want a boat, too. Someday. Not yet.
