Didn't read the book but I get the scenario after a hypothetical world changing disaster, it's going to be a ratrace for high ground. It's a false sense of security to believe hoarding cash or guns or vehicle would be your ticket out of it, it's called pride and hubris.

A motor/car can't swim. Weapons are a sign of hostility. Cash could be useless. Even having access to an escape satellite doesn't guarantee you'll be hit by space trash or cosmic plasma streams. The Road is a example how depressing the aftermath really is.
