Walking on foot for long distances can prove fatal, so you may really want to reconsider an emergency plan in case SHTF. It's always a good idea to have a backup plan or two in just in case.

Special forces teams insert pretty far away from the target area and move by foot in, why? Because vehicles are a large target that is limited to a certain route
Vehicle routes clogged or covered easy, one has to move unpredictably. Those who are in control understand the topography and bottlenecks, in the event of SHTF.
