Shit, the apocalypse has hit. The world is chaos, electricity is out, riots, plundering you name it. What car would be the best dooms day car in any scenario? The car should last as long as possible of course. Argue and reflect.

I would choose the MB Geländewagen 240, one of the military versions of the G-wagon. The Norwegian army still uses these vehicles, and they are from fucking 1986. They will drive for ever. It´s AWD with great differential lock, it´s a lot of space, its easy to repair, it can drive trough fucking rivers and it is very reliable.

None.
With an ICE, you'd ultimately run out of petrol, so would everyone and you would end up with a useless car that can't run anymore because it would take at least a good century to rebuild the necessary infrastructure to make oil available again.
Same problem with an electric engine, due to the lack of electricity.
Any "apocalypse" scenario would have one immediate result and that is the disappearence of mobility. Every other part of the following downfall would be a consequence of this and us having to learn to live after decades of dependence on behaviors and elements that were only possible because of large-scale mobility.

Stupid. Gas is going to run out, parts will break, and you can't look it up on a computer.

I think a horse would be your best bet.

This is objectively and subjectively the correct thing to do.
Fuck, you could even use the thousands of miles of unused railway.
Not to mention a train or even just a locomotive is large enough to have proper and secure living accomodation.
>>
>>16665524
Yes but in what quantity?
How long would it take you to get a full tank of diesel?
It's the same issue with biofuels. The effort is too much for one person.

>small towns/villages got no gas stations

One at most (for each variety), and it's going to be raided by everyone arround.
