Best 2011 New Car to Survive a Zombie Apocalypse
Buying a new car is fraught with complexity. Some buyers want a family car, or a capable 4WD, or great performance potential – and all vehicles offer different permutations of capability. Confusion usually ensues.
This post is an attempt to look at this process through the lens of finding the best car available, in which to survive a zombie apocalypse.
This is not a joke. Actually, the bit about the White House and DefCon 4 is. However, the CDC actually posted its advice for zombie apocalypse survival. See it here: Preparedness 101: Zombie Apocalypse.
So, we’d want a vehicle without conventional glass, which is like butter to a hot knife as far as a hungry horde of zombies is concerned, and convertibles are out. Where does that leave us?
Don't worry - it's claimed the Knight XV can withstand up to 24 hours of sustained gunfire, a level of attack the undead are unlikely to be able to co-ordinate. Think of it as a rolling panic room ... without the panic. It is literally a Knight in shining, assault weapons-proof armour.
(FYI, the CDC posted the ‘Zombie Apocalypse’ warning to get people thinking about, and prepared for, real, likely emergencies like floods and hurricanes, not because they know something ordinary citizens don’t about the undead. Similar preparatory steps are required, after all. Interestingly, the CDC's ‘Zombie apocalypse’ post quickly became the most viewed item on the CDC website.)
