Are you and your X prepared for the zombie Apocalypse? Have some fun!

Well, I'm still working on it. I think mine will be ready this year.

on board air, Arb air lockers, Strong as heck bumpers, beefed up steering and suspension, FULL recovery gear, 16,500lb winch, Lights, aux battery and some other stuff.

As far as blowing the zombies away, I have that covered many many times over.

Bug out bags fully equipped, A years supply of freeze dried/dehydrated food for four, and water filtration capability to drink pond scum for 4 years.

Want to make a nice safari roof rack this summer.


Then I will tackle the off road survival trailer.

LOL, not quite zombie survival stuff...but it might apply...
Front receiver (to attach a zombie-skewering device)
2300w inverter (to recharge all of those battery powered flashlights and such)
Medical gear for about 50 patients (only if they haven't been bitten)
VHF/UHF (to communicate with the other survivors and gauge the spread of the epidemic)
Bugout bag (survival schtuff - MREs, etc.)

...I think I even have a camo net somewhere (not that you need to camouflage yourself against zombies)

Now that skewering device wouldn't be something like out of Death Race 2000 or patterned after something in Mad max?? That would be cool.....

Why, it would be patterned EXACTLY like those. If I'm lucky I could skewer some then use them for slave labor to tend to my vegetable garden when the grocery stores shut down.

Ok, it aint set up for the zombie apocalypse, but if we were living in those times (Does anyone else watch "Walking Dead?"), I would learn how to weld because I would wanna cage the weak points on the Ex.

Maybe put a cow-catcher on the front, LOL!

Something like this would be cool too!

One word: IbisTek

SUV with Machine Gun Turret - YouTube

This one is cool since it keeps the operator safe inside the armored vehicle:

Police State Toys - Cobra Assualt SUV - YouTube

Definitely a large WARN front bumper with "cow catcher" / DeathRace 2000 style front end welded on. A large diesel/tri-fuel generator would fit in well and some serious slicing tools for when the ammo runs out... cause eventually it always does...

That's why everyone should have a couple of black powder rifles and handguns. You don't get the rapid fire but ammo and powder are FAR easier to find and "manufacture" than cartridge based ammunition.

That's a good start... Give yourself a few more years to round out your collection.
