And then I wouldn't be too concerned about fuel economy in the long run. I would think that the gas would go stale long before you ran out.

Edit- and to add to Ben's picture; there is quite a difference between hitting another full sized truck, and hitting a zombie.
Another issue with gas, it only has a limited shelf life, about six months to a year. Diesel lasts forever I think.
