A good friend of mine recently acquired a new zombie apocalypse vehicle, complete with a spare tire on the hood, no power steering, and layers upon layers of military issue green paint. What you see here is a 1991 British Army Land Rover. Other than the tires, it has all original equipment and only about 60,000 miles on it.
It has no electronic engine parts to speak of, so the impact of an EMP event is theoretically non-existent. It has no stereo and no GPS, so unless you bring your own GPS tracking device - err, cell phone, you've nothing to worry about in regards to signal emissions. Basically, it's the perfect vehicle for getting off the grid. In fact, the only real issue I see is that it's somewhat conspicuous in a world of of VW Beetles, Lexus SUV's, and all manner of soccer mom transports. Still, when the balloon goes up (as they say), it's a great vehicle for getting the heck out of Dodge (or suburbia).
Otherwise, all it's really missing is a world overrun by zombies.
