The males were driving a late 90s - early 2000s model Ford F-150, extended cab, green in color with a two-tone gray stripe on the bottom quarter of the vehicle. The driver's side front wheel does not match the other wheels.

The two males were in their mid-20's with brown hair. At the time, one male was wearing a bright orange shirt similar to a construction safety shirt.
