That's handy. I'm not running out to buy a hybrid though

We camp a lot so I have plenty of resources here, not least of which is the rocket stove, multiple internet options (gsm,our isp, our neighbors different isp), cigarette lighter inverter for the laptop/etc. some garage sale generator which I will probably ONLY get around to in an emergency that can run the blower. Fireplace. Blankets, sweaters, sleeping bags, solar shower, cooler, several gallons of water, shovel, axe. Fortunately emergencies don't happen often enough here for me to lose much sleep over. A few days of roughing it is actually kinda fun.
