I think I agree with all of your points. It seemed like it was the right thing to do for him, given what had happened. Maybe he felt like he had to help to make sure no one else was lost as a casualty.

Impulsiveness. A person who is able to manage their impulsivity well will take the time to consider alternatives, gather information and come to a considered conclusion. They are able to set goals, prioritize and keep their plans on track. Travis definitely couldn't control himself.

I don't think even Travis himself can answer the question. He was still questioning himself and his impulsive decisions til the end of the book.

I think Travis was searching for something from the start of the book. He seemed kind of lost and almost came off as an adrenalin junkie. I also think that after losing Larry, he didn't want something like that to happen again, which maybe prompted him to take part in helping out a total stranger.

I think it was just a spur of the moment decision for him. Personally, I didn't see much value in Travis tagging along. I wish he had stayed back and investigated Buckhorn's shady activities.
