Check out the vehicle description of 1969 Ford Bronco, which sold very quickly, from this Little Rock Craigslist Classified ;D

1969 Bronco - the ultimate Apocalypse Survivor! Excellent bug out truck!
No computer, won't be affected by EMP's (electromagnetic pulse) from high altitude nukes sent by some third world crazy ass dictator, or sunspot eruptions that shut down electrical grids and wreak havoc on computerized equipment.
Powerful 351 Windsor engine with 2 bbl carb means you can outrun zombies, or run down people with more food and supplies than you. Dual exhaust sounds tough so you can scare people as you haul ass through crowds of rioters. Add a grill guard for radiator protection if you think you'll actually have to hit some of them.
WAY faster than a military humvee, and one of those junky Land Rovers the U.N. uses will not keep up with this Bronco on or off road. Just haul ass ahead and set up an ambush.
Has new 13 gallon plastic gas tank with new pickup / sending unit. Point type ignition. NO COMPUTER. Did I say that?
One belt, two radiator hoses and a couple of heater hoses are all you have to worry about.
No power brakes, no power steering, no air conditioning. You won't have to worry about that crap failing and leaving you stranded in a city full of hungry ex-welfare recipients.
Does have a good heater, though, in case you hole up in a colder climate.
Three speed standard transmission with column shift means none of the liberal hipsters or other Democrats can steal it cause they'll never figure out the shifter. Plus, you can push start it if the battery fails.
Does have a fully operational four wheel drive system so you won't get stuck when you drive over piles of bodies. Completely new brake system from master cylinder to rubber lines to wheel cylinders to shoes. Fully greased and serviced lock out hubs. Lots of new parts. Nice interior with high back reclining bucket seats comfortable enough to sleep in when you're headed for the boonies with a load of food and ammo to hide in a cave from the U.N. "Peacekeeping" forces.
Painted with Durabak industrial coating in a non glare sand color that won't scratch to allow rust to set in, ensuring your descendants will be able to drive it for decades after your death. Camo spare tire cover just cause it looks cool. No dents. Uncut fenders. Everything works. Hood pins that you could put locks in to make sure your battery stays in your possession . Hood strut kit from Tom's Bronco Parts, so no prop rod needed. Full station wagon top so you can pack it full of guns and gear and leave it ready at a moment's notice. New locks on doors and rear hatch, so it's very secure. Put on a roof rack, and you've space for more stuff or a sniper position.
This is just simply a basic bad ass solid truck ready for years of use whether the world economy crashes or not. Nice enough to drive everyday, and tough enough to take through the woods and not worry about scratches. (Durabak does not scratch, but will remove with a wire wheel if you decide to paint.)
You need this truck. Your family's life may depend on this truck. Hopefully not, but even so, that's a damn good excuse to tell your wife when you bring it home.
I left the fenders uncut and small mud tires for now. Don't be afraid to cut the fenders and put on bigger tires. This is not a show car. This is a "get you home" car.
New stuff includes:
Front turn signals
Hood lift shocks system - no stupid prop rod needed anymore
New shift collar
New shifting tube
Door locks
Headliner
Visors and hardware
Dash cap
Wiper arms and blades
Rear hatch mechanism
Rear view mirror
Speakers
Ignition switch
Arm rests
Interior door handle pockets
Cragar soft 8 wheels
Needs very little. Take it home for $5000 or maybe trade for nice older motorhome.
