In fact the 'raw' still image you just posted looks even more to me like a tow strap / tie-down strap. I think I may see a rachet or what may left of a rachet like this:

Oh yes Truckeeite is very helpful too. There was another local very early on - When I have a minute I’ll search for the post that was talking about the abandoned vehicle by the boat ramp. His user name had something to do with mountain & running - last I had checked he was a “former member”
What I circled looks like a workman's glove to my eyes. Those definitely look like fingers and a cuff to me. Whether it is, or isn't, who knows? Only The Shadow knows (That was for the old-timie's here. lol).
I found the post where the local talks about an abandoned truck at the boat ramp… Post in thread 'CA - Kiely Rodni, 16, missing from a large party @ Prosser Family Campground, car not found, Truckee, 6 Aug 2022'
Good points. The only problem, the stories and behavior of the friends, lack of pictures, video, or witnesses to this party. Too many suspicious things to think she just drove into the lake when totally drunk. I am finding it very hard to believe Kiely would attempt to drive if she were so obliterated she couldn't even see. She allegedly called Sami to ask if she still needed a ride, she was coherent. The back window was rolled partway down, and it looks to me the front also. BUT then the pitch black, and sudden realization you went into water. IDK? I sure hope we aren't still debating this years from now, like the Missy Beavers or Jon Benet cases. I pray for closure, for the family. I just have a bad feeling about that.
I've never heard of his case. How sad and strange, from scanning it.
It looks like a trailer hitch receiver to me still. Here are some photos I found online for comparison
Hope you're right, but IDK. If water got into the lungs from being submerged in the water for two weeks, but she didn't drown, can the coroner tell? Also, would submersion in water, and time, affect the toxicology results? And, if the car can be accidentally knocked or kicked into neutral, if the car was in neutral, then how do we decide it was or was not put in neutral to roll the car into the water? Lastly, if the tow service video proves not to be Kiely or anyone connected to her? I hope we are not left with more questions.
Oh no, I dare not ask as I feel a rabbit hole near.
Oh I suspect of LE. They take a drunk kid right to their parents.

I thought this was on SM, not MSM, but I could be wrong.
So I've watched this moment back a few times on YouTube in a couple different resolutions and a couple different playback speeds and I don't see that colored item on the hitch at all. I wonder what you were using to play it back, maybe a TV or something that you were using to get the screenshot? I just wonder if somehow you get a better resolution than I can get on my phone. What I did notice but I'm not sure I've seen mentioned yet on these threads is the passenger side mirror is broken on the underside as Nick is going by and he says he notices the window broken out. It seems bizarre to me it would be shattered on the underside, unless AWP mistakenly clipped it with a magnet or something. I'll clip screenshots of it here.
Good catch @MomMommyMom2! I don't think there's straps though. There doesn't seem to be a lot of options for trailer hitches for the 2013 CRV. I did a quick search and think I may have found the exact model on Kiely's vehicle. The stickers match up with the image of what you circled.
