At least my old Jeep doesn’t have a computer. Of course it may be hard to get fuel.

All you need is a siphon hose and a gas can, fill up at any "fried" vehicle.

We have an old car, too.

We have bicycles.

We heat the main area of the house during the winter with propane.

I store charcoal to cook with in an emergency.

We have an old landline telephone, so if the low voltage stuff can get back up with the phone company, we can communicate.

We have a hand-cranked short-wave radio.

We have food and water stored.

We have shooting irons.

Guess we’ll survive.

Neither does this old 6x6 that a relative of mine has sitting around. I drove it a little recently:

Actually, there will be hundreds of millions of "dead" cars full of gas. Don't forget your syphon hose!

“At least my old Jeep doesn’t have a computer. Of course it may be hard to get fuel.”

I was thinking about this scenario a few days ago and I thought “what would happen if I was tooling down the road in my VW bus?”. I then realized I’d be a major target.
