something else thats bugging me.
if Dylan was going to meet up with friends at 6.30am why did his Dad not leave until 7.30am?
and wouldn't it have made more sense for him to drop Dylan off the night before instead of him having to get up so early?
have we heard yet whether the change of plans was made by phone call or text message? IMO thats an important piece of information
Dylan had asked his father whether he could go to his friends' that evening after they had shopped at Walmart and eaten at a McDonald's in Durango and before the 45-minute drive to Mark's home north of Vallecito Lake. Mark said he told his son it was too late. So Dylan texted friends in Bayfield, his father said, and made arrangements to meet them the next morning.

It looks like, per Dad, Dylan texted his Bayfield friends the night he arrived to change plans. I'd think LE has looked at what time they left the airport, were at Walmart and McDonald's, and when that text occurred. Since the article says Dylan asked after shopping and eating, but before the drive home, I wonder where/when the text occurred and if it's been confirmed Dylan is the one who sent it, ie cross referencing time of text, location at the time, and any video available. Dylan could've sent it, and made it to dad's, then something happened, but I bet LE's doing all they can to narrow the timeframe around what happened to Dylan.
I'm glad there's more info out now. If it's accurate, it gives us more info. If it doesn't match info LE has, it gives them info.
As someone else pointed out, with the info that some of Dylan's things were left at dad's, I'm surprised the idea that Dylan might've run away was entertained for so long, especially given the bike wasn't used. He apparently didn't bring much, so if he ran away, why would he have left anything?
Is dad saying the TV was left on, or when he turned it on, it was set to Nick? Ambiguous statements are frustrating!
So many questions in this case, and this article creates more, IMO.
I wish in one of these interviews, someone would ask Dad if Dylan was an avid texter and when he confirms that (as LE had stated Dylan was) ask dad, well then why didn't Dylan text anyone Mon?
