And an issue with a motorized vehicle would be a mechanical breakdown. Same thing.

Well I try to avoid that, that's the whole point of my strategy. But if I'd be surrounded, yes, I could trust her to go through a horde of them.

Horses have a brain and eyes, you know
She'd run into any direction where there are no zombies. If she were surrounded, she'd probably just bash through.

...And that's exactly what I plan to do
A horse is much more useful in avoiding zombies than any other 'vehicle', simply for the fact that it can go literally everywhere, gallop through forests, jump over ditches etc. which a motorized vehicle can't do.
Any motorized vehicle, even a 4x4 for that matter, is more or less restricted to the terrain. They can't drive through a forest if there isn't some sort of wide enough path. They can't jump over ditches. They can't cross rivers if there aren't any bridges.

Yeah sure, why not? Cowboys used saddlebags, can't see a reason why I can't.
