My Bug Out Vehicle

In my BOV (actually my every day vehicle). There is 7 gallons of water, 30lb propane tank, two one pound propane tanks, big food cooler, two cold weather sleeping bags, one large tarp, tent, three knives, a crank LED flash light, a battery lantern LED, Duracell 600watt backup powersupply/led light/radio/jump start/12v port/three AC ports (*coming soon, like next week), 150watt inverter, laptop, ipod shuffle, Verizon Mobile broadband, cell phone, VHF hand-held radio, clothing, toiletries, 50 books of matches, 10 lighters, binoculars, Stihl chainsaw 20″ Farm Boss, and tools and oil and fuel additive and this and that…cooking stuff…propane stove, 5 gallons of reserve fuel…Yeah, I really do live in my Subaru.

What I don’t have: a decent BOB. While I do have a backpack, it’s old and the zippers are failing. I don’t carry a gun, but am thinking of geocaching a good rifle, shootgun, and reserve ammo in the mountains somewhere in the case of social breakdown. Am I nuts? Sure, but it’s better not to caught with your pants down in a SHTF social collapse. Think Haiti.
