In the event that an EMP fries your car's electronics you'll probably want a well-equipped fallout shelter to survive the first couple of weeks in a semi-civilized style.
A high altitude one would result in less radiation hitting the ground. Taking out satellites. Fun times indeed.

Our society would suffer greatly with just the loss of cell phones and internet for a week. If the grid then was down across the country also. The lack of news and information even for a few days. The vast majority of the people of this country have not known or complected let alone prepared for such the likes.

Think I go out and buy meez a AR!
