Bug Out Vehicle

Having a vehicle that is capable of getting you and your family out of a disaster is imperative. Most everyone has a means of transportation of some sort. Depending on the situation, any vehicle can serve this purpose. These are the vehicles we have available.


This 2007 Jeep Cherokee is my wife's daily driver. We drove it when we moved from Indiana to Alaska. It gave us plenty of room for everything we needed for a cross-country trip. We added the cargo hitch rack to carry extra fuel and bulky items. It is very fuel efficient and comfortable.



This is our 2002 Jeep Wrangler. We use this mainly for fun, but it is a perfect BOV. It's small, maneuverable and very capable off road. It doesn't provide much cargo room, but with all the accessories and racks that can be added it's doable. We added a winch and air compressor to help while offroading.


This 2007 GMC Sierra 2500 HD is my daily driver. The truck has plenty of power and enough room for the family to sit in comfortably. The camper is an 8' cabover with a 30 gallon water tank, heater, stove with oven, sink, refrigerator, shower and toilet. It is fully self contained with propane and 12v electric. It works well for camping or extended stays.

As you can see it's very easy to make your every day vehicles work for you in a Bug Out situation.
