Keep going back to that wooded area at night and searching with a flashlight. The eyes will glow. And he might feel more comfortable coming out to you at night when everything is quiet and calm. You can also take something with his scent or the smell of home and leave it by a fresh bowl of water and feeding station. But I wouldn't leave the food out if you're not there to watch. If you wait in your car, with the car engine off, you might see Rocky come out of hiding for the food.

Edited because I realize Rocky escaped from a car and didn't get lost from home . But many of these will still apply but you may have to tweak them a bit. The example, leave your contact info with businesses and homes in that area and leave fresh bowls of water out where he was last seen. Put up the missing cat posters in that area and also back home because sometimes cats do manage to travel back to where they know. These are general search tips and not all may apply in your situation. Search at night w/ a flashlight (eyes will glow). Check up in trees and inside/under things in your yard and up to 4 - 5 houses away. Search garages, sheds, under decks and bushes, in crawl spaces, behind AC units - any place the cat might be trapped or hiding. Many cats go into hiding mode for safety and won't come when they hear their owner's voice but try calling and try either shaking a can/bag of treats or carrying an open (smelly) can of cat food or fish. Put something w/ the cat's scent on the porch (cat bed, scratching post, sofa pillows). Keep your garage door up enough to allow entry. Keep fresh bowls of water out. Put up large missing cat posters (neon poster board works well), talk to neighbors (leave info for those not home), post on all local social media groups and make sure to check with local animal control at least once a week (better to go in person but at least call and send them a photo). If not found at night with a flashlight, go out during early morning, before dawn, as many cats are active around that time. If not found in a few days, you can always buy a humane cat trap but traps *must* be checked multiple times each day, every day. If the cat is microchipped, please make sure the chip company has your updated contact information. And even if the cat has a chip, you still need to check with animal control as chips sometimes are overlooked or migrate down. Please search often and don't give up hope.
