WI: Bonnie and Clyde Never Captured

What if instead of being gunned down in 1934 by authorities in Louisiana, a previous shoot out or encounter injures Clyde or Bonnie to the point that they cannot continue to carry out crimes, perhaps paralyzed, and they instead go underground and live out the rest of their days hiding their identities and never are captured by authorities? What does this do for the enigma of their legend?
 
I believe Dillinger had plans of crossing into Mexico but was thwarted. One account has that he decided it would be boring and just wanted to rob banks for the thrill of it.

Not much other than less media attention in the future that romanticized violent acts of robbery.

Maybe the BAR gets less credit for its destructive power and the army sees fit to replace it before WW2 without this one particular success story.
