Advertiser transcript, for those of you who missed the chat, at link in post above.
 
Are you sure it's not gazillionth + one?

And is it gahzillion or gazillion?
 
It's so frustrating that LE can't get a better description of the Chevy truck. I just counted 13 white 4 door Chevy Silverados with the Z71 package from Pinhook & Kaliste Saloom Road, through Camellia to Congress & Ambassador (6 miles across town from east to west for non-locals). Unless they can give something else to narrow it down, the might as well have said not to even bother keeping a look out.
 
I was on the traffic cam site and decided to watch one of the Congress cams and withing about 45 seconds I counted 10 white trucks, of which six could likely be a Z71.

:banghead:

This must feel like a needle in a haystack for LPD.

Can you imagine how overwhelmed the tip line may be if everyone is calling in white truck sightings?
 
If the other drivers came forward, and this guy is hiding, there's a reason.

Unfortunately, this is the way it goes for LE and the public on these cases, this one is not unusual in that at all. In fact, in the Kelli Bordeaux case on WS we didn't even have a picture, make or model of the car that they were asking the public to remember.
 
It is a needle in a haystack...I wish they knew if the z71 had some more distinguishing features...banged up front, side or back...or some sort of logo or something. Even if they compile a list of all white z71s in the area, it would take them forever to check alibis and whatnot.

My thought? If the white truck is not involved (i.e., Mickey turned off and the truck kept going straight) and hasn't yet come forward, perhaps the white truck belongs to an offshore worker who went out before this really blew up in the media and the truck image was released, and doesn't know he's being looked for. If that's the case, hopefully we'll hear some news about it in the next few days (with a 7/7 rotation, at least).

I agree and I believe if any of the vehicles we've been shown are responsible for her disappearance, it is probably the person in that truck. I've always felt that way.
 
Maybe if they made these cameras useful in capturing the license plates of vehicles, this would be much easier.

But not all whites are white (I'm now thinking about a washing powder advert) - A 2007 model Chevy may have a different type of white paint than say an earlier model, (the formula could be different?) thus if LE have some paint to work with that may be able to narrow it down somewhat.

Time will tell. I hope so.

Great point!
 
I'm putting these two posts here because they got stuck at the end of the last closed thread:

From what I understand, the white truck taking a left on University (pointing opposite from the direction MS went) and the shot of the white truck heading NW on University (in front of the graveyard) are the same truck. The police cleared this one truck.

Okay, now we're getting somewhere. Because the police WERE NOT CLEAR ON THIS POINT, you had to assume that's what they meant. Fair enough. However, we just got done with people *****ing about the chat reporters not being detailed enough and this is exactly how that stuff happens. I don't like assuming and I'm detail oriented so unclear statements are something I would clarify if I were, say, a reporter.



When they released the second batch of pics, they said that the car traveling away from St. Landry and the one on University were the same. It's from every news report given on that day.

I swear, this is the first time I've wanted a drink since finding out I was pregnant 7 months go! lol. Stupid truck pics.

Okay then. I never read that they had determined they were the same. Do you have the link for that info?

******************************************************************

This matters to me because we have spent a couple of hundred pages talking about these trucks!

They didn't say anyone came forward. They said they 'tracked them down'. I could see that for the Olds98 but a white truck with no visible plate? How'd they do THAT?
