# Good thoughts on the bio fuel.
However, I wasn't really thinking of gun fire - zombies rarely have guns. I was more thinking of accidents. Say you are rumbling over a big pile of zombies but you don't know there is also debris under it. What if something sharp or immovable pierced the tank - then you'd have no fuel and would be stuck.

Edit: I would also enclose the top gun turret - like a WWII bomber plane/ star wars but on the top instead of the bottom.

# Good points.
The fuel tank is right on the back of the cab, away from the ground, but the possibility of the water tanks getting pierced is still understandably significant. I put them down low so that they could be easily filled/drained in a hurry, but it does seem to make more sense to put them inside or on the roof.

And you're definitely right about the turrets needing to be enclosed. Pesky zombies clogging the mechanism could be more than a little inconvenient. I'll bear that in mind for when I start working on the Mk 3.
