Dodge 12valve cummins Trucks and Survival-Vehicles

ALAMEDA, Calif. - May 8, 2015 - PRLog -- Are you looking for a vehicle to escape town before or after an earthquake? Are you looking for something that you can use as a combat vehicle in case our monetary system collapses? Do you need something to get you to a bug out shelter like a cabin in the woods?

Once you have an idea of what you’re planning on having to deal with, you need to think of what scenarios that would entail, what you’d be bringing, who’s coming along, and several other things that will depend on what situations you might face. Will you need to go off road? Will you have to travel far? How much bug out gear are you taking?

The truck in the featured image for this post is my truck. It would work in some SHTF situations because it’s 4wd, Diesel (I can make my own fuel), sits several people.

This is a big consideration. One of the big advantages of military vehicles is that you can use almost anything flammable in them. Some fuels may gum up the system or whatever but it’ll run. If you don’t have whatever fuel your car needs, it isn’t going anywhere. Hopefully you have a good backpack.

This would be a truck that has everything we love about the old 12-valve 6BT Cummins-reliability, simplicity, durability, low cost of maintenance and great fuel economy.
EPA who? Yes, that's right, the 6BT is from an era where emissions on diesel engines were not under such tight regulation.
You can actually get 18 to 22 mpg on average when driving a truck with a 6BT engine.

I also have talk to many Dodge owners that say they tow a 15,000 lbs. trailer and get 18-20 mpg.
In the event of a major crisis, there is a very real possibility (especially if you live in a more urban area) that you may have to leave your primary refuge. During a disaster, following your Plan A and staying in your home fortress might be derailed due to any number of reasons (ex: flooding, urban unrest, biological/chemical, nuclear fallout, viral pandemic, economic collapse, TEOTWAWKI, etc.). When you have to turn to a Plan B and you have your bug out bag in hand, which method of transportation do you turn to?
