My first thought was maybe he just didn't know it was stolen but he seemed to take steps that might indicate he knew:

The officer ran the truck's license plate number, which matched the plate number registered to a different vehicle belonging to Finley, according to court records.

A vehicle with the same vehicle identification number was reported stolen, according to court records, and the National Crime Information Center confirmed the Dodge Ram was reported stolen.

I can't wait for the "Give Back The NIL" crowd to show up with pitchforks and torches....

Take all the stupidity that occurred before NIL

Add more money

Enjoy the results
