I'm sitting back laughing at all those who have spent thousands on the apocalypse, then I'll sniper you and take everything then move on.

Me neither, not counting ammo.I'm damn sure not gonna spend thousands of dollars on crap I won't ever use on the off chance apocalypse happens though.
I'll take that chance.

A few problems...That's my dilemma, I live in the burbs. I've got maybe 1/8th of an acre in land on my plot (plot size minus house) that I could use for a garden. I would have to remove one good size tree, cut out all the cable, phone, electric and gas lines, and I doubt I would have enough room to garden enough to last over the winter. Not to mention no pump for water and with there being a ton of stray dogs and cats, too many predators in one area to find small game. My tentative plan would be to honker down for a few weeks, then hit the road. I would convert my work van (a Mercedes Benz Sprinter, so plenty of room) by taking out all the cable stuff, leave one shelf and make room for sleeping. Then gather what supplies I could and take my family somewhere else. Gas wouldn't be a problem, would use a suction pump at gas stations. It would take a while unless I could get one that does a gallon per pump. That or use an air compressor driven suction pump (van does have a 1,000 watt inverter). Just wondering if it would be better to head north, go to a coastline, etc. I know I wouldn't want to go west, nothing really there until you get past the rocky mountains and then your locked up against the west coast.
That’s why I spend thousands of dollars on night vision and thermal equipment. It’s stuff that’s fun to use now and will be a significant advantage if TEOTWAWKI happens. If you can’t fight at night, you can’t fight.I'll take that chance.

A few problems...
1. If your plan is to hunker down a few weeks, you'll find that others have already had the same idea. Best to store about 30 gallons at your current place, and keep your van topped off.
2. Heading as far as the coast, you'll likely get caught and robbed. At the very least, if you manage to get around blocked roads, you van will likely get shot up along with everyone inside. Best to bug out a few days before hand. After the SHTF, it will be about a week before food runs out in the cities. People will leave and take to the roads. All of them tired and hungry from walking and no food. And along comes your in your van. Tempting target
