If society falls apart unless you have a tank and a LOT of fuel you can’t go anywhere. You have to figure on defending your home fortress. You probably can’t do it by yourself. You have to organize now for family and neighbors to come together to keep unauthorized people out of the neighborhood. You have to have big firepower to make the moochers that want your stuff decide it is easier to take it from somebody else who won’t kill them.
Realize that your windows will be shot out and that anything not nailed down will walk away if there is not a 24 hour guard.
I hope this is all nonsense but it could happen.
Probably true. In most cases, escape from the city even with a full tank and extra fuel will be frustrated by all the wrecks and roving gangs. I was talking to a former resident of Denver who moved down here and his plan before was to get on his motorcycle with his wife and escape Denver. I asked him one question which really highlighted the silliness of his previous idea .... what if it happens after a normal 2 foot snow fall? At least he had the sense to move out last year.
