Wouldn't even try to get away, I have everything that I need at home. And really, where would I go? I live in West Virginia, in a small town away from large population centers. If I did have to clear out, I would be driving my Dodge Grand Caravan. It has enough room to take what I need and the size and weight to roll right over any undead in my way. As I said in another post, this is what I would do:
First thing I do is move my armor and weapons into the attic. I am in the SCA, and my armor is built to take hits from baseball bats, so no zombie even has a hope of scratching it. My weapons include several swords, all of which are full-tang construction and made of strong steel, and all of which I can use well. Once I am in the attic I would pull the stairs up after me and armor up. If any zombies were in the house I would drop the stairs and let them come up one at a time, because it is ridiculously easy to decapitate someone coming headfirst up a set of stairs. Once the house was emptied I would set about barricading doors and windows and inventorying how much canned food I had, filling up as many jerry cans and milk jugs as possible with water, and taking stock of my first aid supplies. You cannot assume that electric, gas, and water services will stay on long, so I would eat any perishable foodstuffs first and recharge any electric devices such as a power drill and a sportlight (mine is five million candlepower and can run for eight total hours on a full charge). Any restaurants in the area would also suffer a loss of power and therefore their food would also spoil. Food in their freezers might last a few more days, but at one time I was a restaurant manager and I can tell you that nine out of ten times the freezer is locked. A better choice for raids is the supermarket canned goods aisle, as well as their pharmacy for antibiotics (I'm a nurse, I know what I'm looking for), but remember that you may also be in competition or conflict with other survivors for such resources, and they will be wanting to take what you have as well - you may be forced to defend yourself against other humans. Soon I would be reconnoitering the area to see how many had survived, and eliminating any zombies around by drawing them out and engaging them in single combat or in twos and threes so as not to get surrounded. I don't live near a graveyard, so the only undead around would have to be the newly dead. Because of this I might wait a few days before scouting in order to give any undead time to further decay. As their bodies start to decompose they would get slower and weaker, becoming easier to dispatch or dodge. Within three weeks the whole zombie plague would fall apart as they decay past any point of muscular viability. A fresh, newly dead zombie will be just as fast and strong as he was in life, but give it a few days and they decay. "Blending in" with them is usually not an option, as they can smell your blood and sense your heart beating. Anyone trying to do so is committing suicide.
Various gear I have at hand right now that I would find useful:
Binoculars, Rope and Grappling hook, Coleman lantern, 5-cell Maglite, matches or lighters, can opener, battery operated perimeter alarms, canteen, mess kit, liquid fuel operated campstove, sleeping bag, backpack, handcuffs, armor repair kit, handaxe, whetstone and metal file, toiletries, flare gun, inflatable raft, and a canoe.

A boat! I don't think zombies could follow you in water... I'd pack a couple guns with plenty of ammo, a cooler full of food and fresh water, and a fishing pole with tackle so I could keep myself entertained when I'm not blasting the undead. Then I'd return to land to restock when the coast was clear. As long as there isn't some kind of creepy aquatic creatures like in Resident Evil 4, then I think I'd be okay...

What do you mean, "if"? Where have you been hiding? Where I live, there's a freakin zombie epidemic.
I simply deal with them, for the most part, then go off into the woods on the weekends. Zombies, it seems, like to hang out in the city, generally. Watching out for them when they're driving is a bit of a challenge, but they're quite harmless otherwise.

If were talking about zombies here, then 1st thing 1st: fast or slow zombies? If slow, I'd take a bicycle beacuse it doesn't run out of gas. If fast, probably a motorcycle.

a crocodile - which, according to my spousal unit, is a tank armed with a flame thrower and two machine guns.
Personally, I'll get back in the TARDIS and try again.
