Why do they always get into their car / truck to panic?

Honestly, maybe so the family doesn't see, while they can gather composure. A little bit of "men don't cry" and a little bit of "don't want the family to all have heart attacks before I know for sure"

I'd bet it's more "Look, see I am an authentic manly man and a conservative, just look at my Carhart and my truck."
