I'm kind of on the fence about this kind of thing. An earthquake is always a possibility, but I'm thinking more along the possibility of a terrorist operation to take down a decent part of the grid in SoCal. There are other scenarios, but lots would amount to about the same situation. Since I live in the hills, I would probably depend on my 10K water thank, generator, and stored food for awhile. I do need more ammo, but that is a decision I have to make. I suspect large buckets of food needing water wouldn't be that easy to transport very far from home. I doubt an RV would be able to make it far in the crazy commotion that would follow after a major event, especially in highly populated areas. So I've planned on supplies to last for a shorter period and have my backpack ready to go if things really go south. I can live out in the bush making a really small footprint with the ability to defend myself in an extreme situation for sometime. People living in densely populated areas would face extreme problems with mobility, supplies, access to safe water, and maybe dangerous people. In my mind, mobility is maybe the most important thing. A large store of supplies is OK if you don't have to move for a long time waiting for the situation to improve.
