An interesting perspective. We've always planned on a 'shelter in place' situation and if we loose the house doing a fall back to our RV. I keep it full of fuel and semi-prepared so we've got someplace to go if we loose the house. It's only a couple of miles away and I can walk to it if needed. The storage site has manual 'emergency' doors so I can always get out if necessary. Give us two or three hours and I can have it totally stocked and we roll away to anyplace we need to. If I have to just go - we can do that and 'stock up' at the Wally World in the next town or even 2 - 3 hundred miles down the road. Think of it as the ultimate BOB on wheels.

We had to do a grab it and go once when my mother-in-law got very ill and from leaving home to get it to rolling out for Iowa it took under an hour. With all that said, I still keep a BOB in my vehicle that I would only have to 'add' water to and scrounge some food to be set for several days in most any conditions.

Our friends have a cabin a hundred miles or so away to the east, we've got relatives to the south, friends to the west and north so having the RV is a real boon to our planning.
