Right,

It would appear that the economic world is screwed, The mad max scenario should become a reality within afew months.

With this thread tell me what vehicle you will assemble over the coming weeks to tackle the road pirates.

I will be putting together a nissan skyline with bonnet mounted machine guns, rocket launcher exhaust pipe (exhaust fumes can find an alternative route, cars are smart like that), chickenwire windows, and a giant mr blobby teddy holding a sign saying "my way is the highway" mounted on the roof.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAnd go!

Not sure about the idea of using a car. I'm gonna go with a boat cause with the ice caps melting as well as the economy going tits up and petrol prices ever rising, living on water is the only way to survive.

A nissan skyline? When you've to fight to the death for a tank of fuel? And how's a skyline supposed to crash through roadblocks? You're mad. You want a good diesel 4x4. Perhaps a monster truck.

On second thoughts I'm just gonna grab a Delorean and zip back to a time of prosperity before the recession (i.e. 2001)

SEPT 23 1989

My life fades. The vision dims. All that remains are memories. I remember a time of chaos. Ruined dreams. This wasted land. But most of all, I remember The Road Warrior. The man we called "Max". To understand who he was, you have to go back to another time. When the world was powered by the black fuel. And the desert sprouted great cities of pipe and steel. Gone now, swept away. For reasons long forgotten, two mighty warrior tribes went to war and touched off a blaze which engulfed them all. Without fuel, they were nothing. They built a house of straw. The thundering machines sputtered and stopped. Their leaders talked and talked and talked. But nothing could stem the avalanche. Their world crumbled. The cities exploded. A whirlwind of looting, a firestorm of fear. Men began to feed on men. On the roads it was a white line nightmare. Only those mobile enough to scavenge, brutal enough to pillage would survive. The gangs took over the highways, ready to wage war for a tank of juice. And in this maelstrom of decay, ordinary men were battered and smashed. Men like Max. The warrior Max. In the roar of an engine, he lost everything. And became a shell of a man, a burnt out, desolate man, a man haunted by the demons of his past, a man who wandered out into the wasteland. And it was here, in this blighted place, that he learned to live again...

Before you buy, bear in mind that only the late 1982 delorean models were capable of time travel.
