I haven’t left WS since Sunday and I know through my routes that I have seen the Nissan. My ex had a truck similar, which is what brought my attention. I know I did not see the magnetic decal on it, I’m familiar because I live close to where it was taken. But I know I saw it outside of the neighborhood, I just need to retrace my steps since Sunday.
