Many a true word spoken in jest as they say, I used to use one at work, we were in the city centre with no van (parking issues) and i was in easy walking distance anyway, I would do some shopping after work with it,made sense.

serioulsy though something a bit bigger with wheels like an old style pram or small bike would probably be ideal, to bug out with stuff which was too much to lug on your back, we could actually get more in 5 of them than the car would carry.
I have a strategy, it's not written in stone, nor can it be, this scenario has too many variables, everything about it depends on those variables, being specific is not possible.
