Well I believe a pedo van (no windows) would be rather nice, what's better than hiding in plan sight? You could find a zombie-less spot and get some shut eye or just take a break.

I pick the big nuclear powered boat. You know the ones that can say at sea for a year or more and house 15,000 people if they had to.

A bicycle, because it makes almost no noise, and it doesn't have a finite amount of fuel (When your helicopter runs out of gas, what are you going to do?)

However, if you did have infinite fuel and/or your boat is made of non-corrosive material, (remember, sea air makes everything rust/corrode much faster)I would choose the boat.

Actually, instead of a steamroller, I'll take this:

I don't think that would be terribly practical come a ZA, but that is now my favorite YouTube video ever.

Regrettably, blimps/dirigibles tend to get ripped apart by heavy winds, so I'd have to go with... a cargo ship, crewed with dependable people, loaded with canned food (and ramen. yum.), enough fuel to last for about 5 years (assuming lots of free floating in the ocean) and a crapton of water. Need supplies? Just park the ship a mile or so offshore, take a dinghy in to a secluded island that shouldn't have any zombies, and get whatever you need. That way, you can always ensure that there are not any zombies on the dinghy before you let it onboard, and since those ships have high, sheer iron sides, there's really very little in the way of a problem with unwanted invaders making their way into your sanctum.

Because you didn't specify whether you we escaping to safety, on a supply/rescue mission, or just killing zombies. Therefore, I will go over each scenario. To escape, a bike would actually be the best when you think about it; doesn't need fuel, can be carried through rougher terrain, and is relatively low maintenance. Supply/rescue mission, a blimp is surprisingly effective, as it requires comparatively little fuel and is relatively quite. If you're just out to kill zombies, get a few friends, pile into the back of a pick-up, drive slow, and start shooting.

Reasons:

1) I have never heard of swimming zombies
2) Access to islands
3) Access to food and water(water, of course, depends on which water you are on and food is fish of course)
4) If you run out of fuel, no biggie you can just paddle.
5) Gives you a nice secure place to live with no threat of being attacked ever.
6) ???
7) Profit!


As for the other vehicles, while they may be able to get you farther faster for the most part, once you run out of fuel you are stuck where you began, or dead if it is a chopper and you run out mid-flight
Mutant sea monsters ? That usually happens with zombie holocausts...

But yeah, that would be nice.

I would personally pick the USS Iowa

I say a big boat or ferry, as zombies cant swim, unless it's l4d zombies :p.
Staying on a ferry with loads of eatable stuff, generator, tall slippery sides, places to sleep, and electricity.
The safest place would be a boat like that.
The ferry would just be placed in some ocean, with a fishing pole too, stay alive forever :)

And why would anyone pick a bike? How would that help you not to get bitten, eaten, or anything? You would be completely exposed on that thing.

Boat because if it runs out of fuel you can still row it or make it go with sails, zombies can't swim (as far as I know) and with a boat, if it runs out of fuel at least it won't go crashing to the ground or stop dead in it's tracks.

I'd have to say boat, unless zombies can swim, which I doubt, even then, it will be hard to track your scent unless your close to land, something large enough to be effective, but small enough to be able to be driven without engine if the need for quiet landing manifests. Also, you can stockpile considerable food and resources and take them with you on the move, much easier then most other vehicles.

Clearly then I could have a luxurious lifestyle, completely free of zombies.

If needed to, I could cultivate my own swarm of sharks to discourage any tempted brain eating humanoids.
:D I like your, 'now-made-into-a-quote', comment.

It is cool.

A bus.
It's big for both effective zombie-mushing and survivor capacity.
Plus, I've always wanted to drive a bus. Adding zombies just makes it cooler.

I chose motorcycle, only because of Clouds Fenrir Bike which goes 400 kmph and has swords in it

in reality though, i'd say a tank mainly cause their faster now and incredibly armored and pack alot of fire power i guess depending on which zombies were talking about the slow or the roadrunner fast ones

also i'll use the forum favourite: the Helicopter

Ok the only problem with having vehicles is the need to re-fuel, in any kind of air craft this is exasperated, last thing you want is to be falling out of the sky.

The ground based vehicles are just as bad, unless you know how to manually pump gas from a petrol station, assuming the power is down, or that you will find one that hasn't already been raided & or burned down.

The other problem with traffic is there are bound to be raiders & or bandits out there & places like petrol stations would be, to me prime targets, why hunt for supplies when the supplies can come to you!

My option would be either push bike or if near rivers ect a sail boat, i have experience of small one man sail boats so would be easy for me, that way i travel lite, quietly & wouldn't be a target for every have-a go-thief & walking corpse in the area.

M1 Abrams. I still don't understand why in all the zombie scenarios presented the army always get screwed. If you are in a tank, do not get out of said tank and make sure nothing enters said tank you're pretty much set. So all tank crews should be fine... So yeah I'd get my hand on one of those.
