I'd imagine it's sort of like a prius....you'd have to drive almost a million miles before you could ever realize some savings.

I don't think it would really be comparable to the Prius, as you are still needing to purchase gas for it. So you are still paying for the gas even though the estimated costs are down, and are still adding cost on as you are trying to pay it down. With the Flux Capacitor, you just find some trash for the Mr. Fusion. Any dumpster will do fine. So you are totally nixing out fueling costs.

I've got five used ones sitting around here somewhere..... but you can't have them. they are mine. if you try to steal them i will go back in time and steal you from your crib, dropkick you into a pond, and laugh at your demise. Either that or we could have time-travel wars.... that would be cool too.

The only problem with that is if I did steal one, I would die in the process of doing so as you would, in your future self, find out (in the future) I stole one (in the past), travel back in time, and kill my past self. In fact, the second I finalize my decision to steal one, I would die on the spot. That, or we would be forced into an infinite repeating time loop of going back in time to kill our past selves over and over again...

*Head esplodes from contimplating time travel paradox*

I agree with SingleTurbo...we need more clams.

What if I go back in time with my only remaining flux capacitor in order to stop flux capacitors from ever being created. Which by my amazing calculations would leave a time gap between the time this whole thing started and the time that flux capacitors were erased from history. And since you can't rewind time (the most you can do is travel between times) you would be stuck with a missing block of time and since time is necessary for events to occur, nothing would have occurred during that time. Which leads to the theory that you can't have something occur after something occurred without something occurring between the 2 occurrences. And in conclusion...


Existence will cease to exist...

It wouldn't matter because EXISTENCE HAS CEASED TO EXIST!!!

Thats kinda what the whole thing led up to. But if you guys want to see my real flux capacitor just ask. I'm not kidding either, there is this little thing next to the brake booster that looks funny, it's like a coiled copper wire in a plastic tube thats sealed closed. I'm afraid that if I touch it my inertial dampers will go offline...

Quoted for "duh"viousness... he was the one bringing in crucial Manufacturers points (before they got thrown out the window for getting caught with super secret spy missions on the other teams). Lemme word this correctly once in for all so it stops being brought up by everyone. He was the "unofficial" TEMPORARY #1 driver because he was making the results at the time. If a #2 driver in any racing league was leading the world championship by a pretty decent margin over #1 you besta believe #2 is gonna get a little bit more attention than he had before. No team is dumb enough to neglect the primary play maker be it for a short or long stint.

That won't matter because Rosberg will be world champion someday..... somehow

Ha, I hope so, I like him, but I don't have super high hopes for him. I really just don't like Hamilton, thats all

Actually, he just takes the prototype from the past and brainwashes the creators and anyone who knows/knew of it and brings it forward in time with him.... thus history for it will never have existed although one exists in the future via a space-time continuum loop-hole...... which would indeed cause a collapse of the dimensions known as "past" and "present" and more than likely merge them into one single dimension.......... which would basically cause time to never progress because each second forward would mean several years backtracked.

One can only wonder what the consequences of having an object in your possession that was never created would be...

How could something exist if it was never created...

So basically that would be the only thing that would remain once existence ceased to exist...

Arguably the most efficient region.
