        Nobody knows! Part of the article is a list of unanswered questions, that among them.

        A sport utility vehicle that gets 800+ miles a tank? Or a country that thinks nothing of a 12 year old pulling into a station & getting gas?

        Apart from going on a cross country drive, it's yet to be revealed his reasons. Very lucky that he's ok along with others on the road.

        My bucket list is now three items long. 1) Attend the last game ever in a stadium. 2) Attend a game seven. 3) Drive across the Nullarbor.
