I doubt that your > old TransAm got much worse mileage than the Delorean. I measure such things carefully, and I am confident that my DeLorean gets 27-29 mpg in 5th gear at 65 mph. My old 6.6 liter Trans Am got 13-15 mpg on the highway. The DeLorean gets about double the fuel economy of that Trans Am! Of course I usually drive close to the speed limits, and I shift and accellerate conservatively. No offense, Shannon, but if your DeLorean only gets 18 mpg, then *slightly* more aggressive is an understatement. I would classify you as a full blown, take-no-prisoners, aggressive driver. You would have loved my old Trans Am. It was quite the road burner. - Mike Substelny
