Windows Crashed, restarted and 4x4 is gone

[Tarlain]

I am playing on PC, windows 10, single player.  I have no mods.  I was travelling along between cities in my 4x4 loaded with stuff and heading back to base.  I alt-tabbed because my cat wanted attention.  When I clicked back on the screen, I got a spinning wheel and the screen went gray.  After 30-60s, the game crashed completely.  I restarted and continued the game, but now I am on foot, no 4x4 in site and none showing on the map.  Poof, gone.  This is my first time playing and first time on the forums, so please forgive me if that isn't enough info.  I will provide additional details as requested.

Try retracing the path you were driving. Your 4x4 may be back there waiting for you.

Also, this is the last known position of the 4x4 from your log. You could check there.

Ok, two things.  1) wouldn't the vehicle show on my direction thing at the top of the screen if it was there?  2)  No idea how to get to or see specific coordinates.  Help, please?

With a crash, it can forget that the vehicle is yours, so doesn't show up.  Go to your map and you will see coordinates at the top.  Negative on the first number is West and negative, to so you want to go to 1115 West and 371 North.  You can point a waypoint there to make it easy to get there.  The second number is just height above bedrock and appears to be ground level in your case, which is what you'd expect.

 

Note that to get it to show on your map again after finding it, you will need to pick it up and put it back down so the game knows it is yours again.
