Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
being serious... I have a chevy 2500 on 37s. just spending money on reliability. I have a CB in there. fullsize spare, couple jerrys (need mounts if anyone is selling), hi lift etc. I am worried about gas mileage but the world is only going to last so long anyway lol
Re: Bug out rig
Looks like the M109 maintenance van we had as part of our support ops. The five ton expando (don't remember the designation) would be a better option.Originally Posted by ChunkyMonkey
[edit] found it - M934 variant. Tactical Ops Center on wheels. Of course, this on a modern platform would be the sweetness.

My Feedback
Credit TFOGGER : Liberals only want things to be "fair and just" if it benefits them.
Credit Zundfolge: The left only supports two "rights"; Buggery and Infanticide.
Credit roberth: List of things Government does best; 1. Steal your money 2. Steal your time 3. Waste the money they stole from you. 4. Waste your time making you ask permission for things you have a natural right to own. "Anyone that thinks the communists won't turn off your power for being on COAR15 is a fucking moron."
Having followed a couple of conversions of both the deuce and a half and the five ton version, I'd probably go with deuce and a half. Some states require you to get a CDL to drive the 5 ton and the deuce can be found with a multi-fuel diesel that expands your fuel options. Check the Steel Soldiers forum for more information than you can handle on these vehicles.
Definitely cool, but huge, expensive, and difficult to move safely/quietly.

Go for reliability and capacity. If you are scooting out of town due to natural disaster, the more your vehicle can carry, the better. In a situation like that, everyone's nerves are beyond frayed because in some situations, people realize they will be returning to nothing more than a concrete slab, if that, so if you just happen to own a school bus, that'd be ideal as you could put a lot of important things in it and take them to safety with you.

Ugh, only did 3 years in Florida but remember those hurricane evacs. Amazing how many people waited until inside the 24-hour point to bug out then got all pissed off about ParkingLot-95 and the fact they couldn't locate a motel or budget hotel with vacancies ...
Those that fail to plan, plan to fail.
