Its a good idea man. No doubt that if you are in a big city or near a big city, you need to find a place to bug out to in a rural area. Making plans and practicing those plans whenever possible is also a great idea. Maybe its just me, but I would try to make sure the BOL is no further than ONE tank of GAS away from your location. At best, you could see how much gasoline you could store in your vehicle without causing problems or being a huge target, and then try to make sure that you can make it to the BOL or close to it, with that much gasoline. Another thing to think about is once you run out of gas, make sure you have a sharp punch or screw driver and empty gas cans to scavenge from vehicles abandoned beside the road or get from other sources to make sure you can keep going. Make sure your vehicle is in good shape, properly maintenanced, and your spare tire is good to go. Also, if you can store a few key extra parts in it, besides your get home/go bag and your medical kit that is in your vehicle. Things to think about, and I'm glad to see you thinking about this and trying to work something out. Its never too late man. I'd happily have you in our group, Kenny, but it seems we're on opposite sides of the country. Who knows, some of you may actually run into each other one day, that are in different areas now, depending on what takes place. All you can do is prep up and get ready.
