Some things he writes are similar to how we live, others are not. We have no written plan; our P/U is always loaded with our tent camping gear, food for several days, 2.5 or more gal of water. We try to keep our pantry as full as possible, keeping within the limits of space and weight. We always have the fresh water tank full, keep the holding tanks as empty as possible. We always run off of the top half of the fuel tank, not the bottom. We have several weapons with us, handguns, .22 and centerfire rifles, slug barreled shotgun with a spare 30" barrel, a decent (again keeping weight and space in mind) amount of ammo for each. Not being a big fan of the "bug out" thing, our plan is always to move out before a known threat (weather) arrives, or stay put 'til the "problem" is solved. Given our ages and med problems, bugging anywhere on foot is not an option. Or at least not 'til that is the only way to stay alive.

I forgot to add that we currently do not have a generator, but will be picking up a Honda 2000w soon. With that will come at least two five gallon jugs, always kept full...
