Let me know if there is anyone passing through New Orleans or the surrounding area (on I-10) as I'd like to say hello and snap a few pics.

Well I made it home last night around 9:00pm. Only problem the whole trip was that one fuse for 3 of the injectors, it was still popping on me occasionally. The last time it did it, I actually got exited because when I replaced it it immediately popped again. Yay, a consistent state I can troubleshoot from! Pull out the meter, hmm, everything seems fine? Put another fuse in, no blow. So I'm going to have that to think about for a while, and another oil change to do as I just drove over 3000 miles this past week.
Overall trip average MPG was about 28mpg, wil many fillups at 30 and 31. Max speed was 88mph (woo!), average speed was 78mph south of Illinois, and 72mph in and north of Illinois.
Outside of the Hilton itself I didn't see one other DeLorean the whole trip. Might be the first time that has happened too. An ironically enough, some of the hottest conditions I experiences the whole week were in central Iowa of all places comin home yesterday. The UV/IR windshield is spectacular and I couldn't be happier with it.
See you all in 2014 in Dayton, OH. Hopefully arriving with an entourage of a few more cars than just myself.

With a DVM reading the current, you will only get an average. If you just use the injector specifications and up the fuse size two or three times that should work.
I would like to get one of those IR windshields but this trip the AC was more than enough. It just did not get as hot as I expected in Orlando.
