A advantage for me is that there lots of side roads and major roads around me so if I did have to leave getting out should be easy, and I fully expect the area to get swamped with people from Philly, North Jersey, and possibly Delaware looking for food. The plan is to get out of dodge and drive to the nearby Pine Barrens and shelter there. Most likely driving off a side road and then unpacking the truck of gear and hiking a few miles in and then transporting my gear deeper as I go. I would also disable the truck in place by removing the battery and tires and hiding them, so if I needed to I could get it running later. It would require multiple trips but being off the beaten path is my best bet and things like water are easily found from mutiple streams so that wouldn't be a issue. Sheltering in place for me would be a death sentence and the bulk of the people wont enter the Pines even if they thought there was food there, its too easy to get lost. Currently replacing my tent and sleeping bag though as I have become concerned there not up to par with conditions if I had to rough it for too long. Good for short trips, but anything longer than a week and there will be problems.
