Family stated they had been out west, had been working somewhere on the coast. They were headed to Florida to work at a Christmas tree farm, and were to start Nov 20. I believe Texas was a stop on the way and they also planned to visit New Orleans. So they appear to have been traveling and working odd jobs to support their journey. IMO
Yes, I understand, but it doesn’t take long to establish residency in Texas for RVers, so passing through Texas would allow them to conveniently change their residency/domicile to Texas if they wanted to before continuing on. Of course, we don’t know they did that, but I suspect they had Texas plates which would make it less conspicuous for whoever stole their truck and trailer and crossed the border.
ETA: This article indicates that they had already spent several months Workamping in Texas.
