My Bug out plan is to head away from the major population center close to me, toward the boat. My diesel vehicle gets 44 mpg if driven hard (80+ mph), I can get close to 50 mpg if I drive at or under 65 mph - At speed I can make it from the Lincoln tunnel in NJ to Asheville NC on one tank of fuel - plus it's pretty inconspicuous, a hatchback that will hold 2 people, plus attendant gear for a close to 2week 'trip'.
I'm still fitting out the boat, but if it fits in the car, it will fit in the boat, a few trips in the zodiac, but it'll get there. Since it's a sailboat - in most cases fuel is a secondary concern. Solar panels trickle charge the batteries.
