What vehicle would you like to have if all **** breaks loose in a zombie apocalypse?

For me, none other than the R-35:

No ground clearance. Hard to run over zombies and they will get stuck in undercarriage.

I would want true 4wd capability. Crew cab 1 ton truck ford or dodge diesel. Big winch bumpers for ramming stalled cars Or a older 6x6 that can run on anything from used oil to trans fluid to diesel. But a ford or dodge have more really available parts either in cities or dead on road
Maybe a H1 hummer

Dude is that Matt Damon? Why do the future movies always have guns that people modified adding stupid crap on the barrels

I went to the Chicago Auto Show last year and Hyundai actually had a Zombie Apacolypse concept vehicle in their display. Definitely one of the stranger marketing efforts I've seen...

Pretty damn nice, a luxury zombie roller, lol. It looks like it would suck down gas like none other though?

So uncreative and impractical.

The point of a vehicle is to blend as much as possible a Armoured 3/4-ton Suburban or a Cummins Diesel Ram 2500/3500 or Duramax diesel powered Chevy HD 2500/3500 or F250/F350 Super Duty or if a I had a to have a smaller capable vehicle can't Go wrong with a 4.0HO I-6 Jeep Wrangler YJ/TJ/WJ or Jeep Cherokee XJ would be my choice(s).

My other two choices of a Unimog or a mil-surp AM General M35A2 Deuce and a half 6x6 would stand out too much and in confined urban areas would be exposed and thus vulnerable.

You gonna tow a whole other tank behind you for parts along with a 18 wheeler for fuel?
I would think a vehicle with easy to find spare parts would be better.
