For most any post-apoc, I'd recommend at least giving a look to Nuclear Renaissance. We played it at 4 different meetings this year and enjoyed it. It's very flexible, and easy to learn (important for us). We played it with and without vehicles in both sci-fi and post-apoc settings and it worked well for all.  It's probably the 6th Post apoc ruleset we've tried and I think it's the one we're going to stick with for a while. The only points I'd make about the system are:

-Lots of guns is very dangerous. Make sure you and your opponent are not going spam-crazy with powerful weapons
-Lots of terrain is best
-Smaller tables are usually better.

Here's a link to write-ups and observations of the 4 games we played.

The expansion "Tome of Tridlins" is available as a moderately price PDF.
