I had a thought about the gas can Bryer was seen purchasing at the gas station in Whitehorse on the afternoon of the 15th. Could it have been that after killing Lucas and Chynna the previous night, Kam and Bryer wanted to start burning their crime scenes? Perhaps a realization they came to whilst driving off into the late night after the first murder. In other words, burn the bodies and their vehicles after looting them? I don't think they initially wanted to give up the Dodge and Camper. In fact, I have to wonder if they were going to try and kill that person 25 miles West of Haines Junction the night of the 17th and burn him right on the side of the road rather than kill him and steal his vehicle. Here's the thing though, they were seen on the side of the road with the hood up on the pickup on the previous afternoon of the 16th. So it's possible yes, they did want a new vehicle. Still, I have to wonder if they only wanted to kill, loot and burn the crime scenes, then eventually came to the conclusion they have to get rid of the Dodge because it was becoming a serious liability. I'm really curious of how much trouble the pickup gave them before the 16th or if that was the first time it started acting up? I mean consider this, they were in Whitehorse the afternoon of the 15th, then they were East of Whitehorse (just outside of town heading East from Whitehorse as I've come to understand it with this Kilometer Marker 1435) pulled over on the 16th. Then on the evening of the 17th they were back in Whitehorse, then later that same night they were a little over 2 hours West of Whitehorse, West of Haines Junction.
I definitely think any theft and the burning/blow up style of the cars added to the adrenaline and excitement. And of course, would get media talking once RCMP figured out what was happening.
Sounds like they wanted to go big in blow up style too. To buy the jerrycan to pour gas on the vehicles before lighting up, that's a big show. If they were low on funds (I think they were?) interesting to waste gas and gas money to light fires!
