I don’t think making a car designed to take lightning strikes and big lithium ion batteries are a good combination.

The real test is to make an extended drive in that electric DeLorean in very cold weather where you need to recharge the batteries.

Did they get it up to 88 miles an hour?

“I’ll let you insert the 88 mph pun of your choosing here”

What’s the “88 mph pun”?

What’s the total cost per mile to own and drive it, including depreciation? How does that compare to similar ICE vehicles in the same price range?

Lol. Hyperbole. The word “legendary” implies greatness. The Delorean was a slow pig of a car. A dog. Uninspiring handling. Horrible build quality. Legendary my butt. Maybe in the same vein as an Edsel. But no, the Edsel had far far better build quality. For that matter a Beetle did, too. If not for the movie the Delorean would have been entirely forgotten.

Lets take it on a coast to coast trip across the US against an ICE car and see who gets there first. My guess is that there is several days difference.

The good thing is that movie and its sequels assured its icon status, which means the DMC-12s that remain are celebrities wherever they go.

That's good to know!

Where we're going we don't need codes:

In Twenty-Four Eighty-Eight
The Hebrews entered a new estate.

(Live in the home of tomorrow... today!)

The DMC time machine debuted on October 26, 1985, which was also the early hours of Jewish Mother's Day and the "Go Go" Sabbath Lech Lecha, which begins with an invitation to head out for a little adventure:

Genesis 12.1 And the Lord said to Abram, Go forth from your land and from your birthplace and from your father's house, to the land that I will show you.

Observant types would notice the detail in verse 4, that Abram was 75 years old.

Hey, it's a time machine, a year for a minute, best be on time:

...listen, can you meet me at Twin Pines Mall tonight at 1:15? I've made a major breakthrough and I'll need your assistance.

>>>

My equipment. That reminds me Marty, you better not hook up to the amplifier -- there's a slight possibility of overload.

>>>

I'll see you tonight. Don't forget now -- 1:15 am. Twin Pines Mall.

What happened? I thought that it was supposed to be similar to the concept pictured below-
