Chances of you experiencing the apocalypse - Zero
Chances you will get trapped in an Cybercuck and be unable to get out - Not zero
Elon is building both the "apocalypse-proof" (they are not) truck and the apocalypse (he really is)
When they say "apocalypse-proof", what they actually mean is that the pedestrians outside are protected from the localised internal apocalypse occurring within the vehicle.
And the apocalypse will have working charging stations.
Will a tesla even start if the internet is down?
Jokes aside. You can build you own solar charging station for a few grand.
Not a lot of people can build their own oil extraction and refinement system in their backyard.
On the flip side, might be a good time for everyone to learn about wood gasifiers.

Let's face face it. The most likely apocalypse is an economic crash brought on by the kind of crop of idiots. Not sure how a car is going to help with that.
