What was the reason for abandoning the truck?
Who knows. The way they left the orange suv sitting on a road at a stop sign apparently and then the truck in daylight at a car wash with the keys in it? Neither made much sense.
I'd have taken the SUV to a remote, off-site airport parking lot. Those lots tend to be packed with cars 24-7 and rarely patrolled by LE. Maybe have the 2nd vehicle waiting in the same parking lot, or better down the road in walking distance, with all the supplies in the 2nd vehicle. So 1st vehicle has nothing but them in it basically. It would have taken at least a week or two before anyone noticed the suv in such a lot and then since it's at the airport it could signal to LE that maybe they got on a flight somehow. maybe charted a private plane to central america. it would be another fake lead to keep LE guessing and busy.
Also, at those remote airport lots they ask how long you will be leaving your car for: if you say more than a week they will pack your car in so tight a cop driving through the lot would not even see the license plate, and might not even notice the suv in a forest of vehicles.
