You need to stop right there. Keep this line up and the mods will flip it over into the political forum. Zombies, we can get away with. You start talking about zombies, clowns, and monkeys in the same thread and nobody will believe it's not about American politics.
I'm with fscrig75 on the M-113. I'd go with an A-2 version for ease of maintenance(greyhound bus engine and trans!), preferably the M113-A2 ACAV. 'Abandon the mortar system, and the M-106 might be better because of the larger rear hatch(cargo access, baby!), but then you can't have the 60s on each side(hatches flip to the side instead of to the rear). Oh, yea,... All versions of the 113 family can swim too, although I wouldn't want to tackle surf in one of them.
decisions, decisions,....

Tie floaties onto your Jeep. Problem solved.
True boatside rockers?
Might need some sand paddle tires for propulsion.

you all should read THE ZOMBIE SURVIVAL GUIDE by Max Brooks. theres a pdf copy floating around teh internets, its pretty informative but he makes the point that motorized vehicles are generally a bad idea 
he says riding bikes is better: quiet, no gas, compact...but im sure hes never ridden in a monster XJ capable of driving over most rotting quasi corpses and driving around or though any obsticles, plus what if we want them to come? "get some!"

Sorry. If there's a zombie outbreak and they are fast/intelligent there's no way I'm riding a bicycle.
If they are slow/stupid. Maybe ....

i couldnt agree more, i think if you just keep the muffler and rattles down and make sure not to get stuck in an urban area trapped by abandoned busses youll be ok. yeah shawn of the dead moron zombies not 28 days later/left for dead/resident evil kind that can sprint and jump and use ladders. id put a decent mountain bike or 2 on the roof/back just incase of a vehicular malfunction, because once that thing stops your a sitting duck that untill recently has been anouncing its position with engine noise, lights and most likely teen pop set to 11...not to mention gunfire

If we get SotD zombies, we'll be alright. It should be pretty easy to escape and be safe.
But if we get 28DL zombies, it's gonna be a whole lot worse.

you guys can have your XJ's, i think it would be much more fun plowing through a crowd of zombies with a real monster truck...

Gotta have a lightweight plow on the front to help push dead zombies/junk out of the way.

He is Legend zombies are pretty bad too. Intelligent, fast, and strong/durable enough to ram an Expedition with their head hard enough to flip it on it's side.

Yeah, I'd seriously be contemplating suicide in case of that kind of zombie outbreak.

Thats why I didn't want the motor version. With the 113 you can have 60s/240Bs off the side and one on the rear hatch, plus the .50 or MK-19 on the coupla, though I'd rather have the .50 cal.
Yea the A2 version is easier to work on, but they are SLOW, unless you are going down hill with the air blowing behind you. (The latterals are fun though)

I need to watch that movie again. I think that zombies will be in between Sean of the Dead and I am legend.

I'm surprized nobodies thought of this. Incase of a zombie attack I'd have to install a cassette player in my jeep and reinstall my speakers and maybe a loud speaker on top of the jeep. If in my attempt to get away from society I become surrounded by the undead I'll simply insert my tape of MJ's THRILLER!
When all the zombies start breaking out in dance I'll high tail it.
And as for any Killer Clowns trying to take over I'm cool with that. I'm down with the Clowns.
The Monkey though is another story! I hate their music. I live 10 minutes away from Davy Jones though. I know he's pretty old and so are the others so I'm not too worried about them.

yeah i like that tornado vehicle for being impenitrable and most likely fast, but can you see it going through a corn field? how bout hitting a stump or trying to cross a ditch? a reliable well equipped/armed compact suv is really the best bet. if a vehicle is required that is. oh and im really sorry mutantXJ....but icp makes me want to commit genocide... monkeys blow too.. but i just tazed a toddler when i saw those pictures you put up...

I used to like ICP but then I grew up. 
I just realized that all this time I've been saying He Is Legend in reference to the movie I Am Legend. He Is Legend is actually a band I listen to and for some reason, I mix them up regularly.

Can't just use any ole SUV. Gotta be an XJ. Parts abound. Easy to fix.

A K5 is stronger and just as plentiful...
