==== 🎯 My Opinion — What Should Be the Next, Most Critical Moves ====
# Mobilize a coordinated volunteer search — but with targeted focus on rural canals / ditches / water-adjacent areas east of I-25. Bring in drones (with thermal imaging, if available), volunteers on foot, people with knowledge of farmland / irrigation areas.
# Work with water-management authorities (like the Northern Water Conservancy District) to map and gain access to all nearby water-storage infrastructure — reservoirs, canals, drainage ditches — and conduct searches there.
# Issue a renewed broad media / public appeal — especially targeting rural and farming communities east of Loveland and toward Pierce/La Salle — with updated description of the vehicle & a clear statement: “If you saw a black 2016 VW Tiguan with CO temp-plate 7880903 any time after Nov 30, please call.”
# Check tow-yards, scrapyards, impound lots within a 50–100 mile radius — often stolen or abandoned vehicles get towed quickly; they may still have license-plate or VIN info recorded.
# Request all possible surveillance footage along I-25, CO-402, and secondary roads from Nov 30 → Dec 5 (or a few days after) — including from businesses, rest-stops, gas stations, convenience stores, and private-property cameras.
