Question about vehicles

[LostManAbroad]

I want to understand how the vehicles despawn. Is it to do with time or distance from vehicle or both? The example I am thinking about is this. Let's say I get a boat and I go out to the oil rig, get some crude oil and take it to be processed. I can do this run 10 times before the motorboat is full. The motorboat can hold 200 but my Zamak truck can hold 700. If I then take all the processed oil from the motorboat and put it into my Zamak truck, will the truck at the oil processing plant despawn if I head back out to the oil rig to get more oil?

Vehicles despawn if they haven't been interacted for 10 mins. Answering your question, your Zamack will de spawn before you being able to fill it, more likely. Or in te worst Scenario,  stolen.

What if every time I process the oil and put it into the Zamak truck, I then get into the truck as a driver and then hop back out again? Would that not keep it from despawning. Surely everytime I get into it it would reset the 10 minutes?
