So, in trying to figure out what Ray drives, I went through a lot of options, and had some great suggestions from a lot of faithful readers. But it just came to me, that she should have a Delorean–and even better that she just had it, without understanding it’s significance. I thought it might be stretching things a little too much, so I did some research. Turns out that about 8,000 Deloreans were made, and well over 6500 are likely still around in various places. There is a bit of a cult following among some Delorean owners, but some people just have them around. When I looked into how many are still on the roads of America, it actually seemed perfectly feasible that an old uncle of Ray’s would have one, and might have passed it down to her, without her ever knowing the car’s association with Back to the Future.

It’s a longshot, but if there are any Delorean owners or enthusiasts among my readers, I’d love to hear about your experiences, and thoughts on the car.

So expect to see more of this baby in action, since we’ll be seeing a lot of the car on this road trip storyline. Till then — see ya!
