The Delorean has stealth at least

Dude, the doc was working with what he had, and the result turned out to be fairly badass. Did you see how big his ice-maker was? The fact that he was able to construct another time machine at all in the late 1800's is insanely brilliant. And it even got a hover-conversion.

I always thought there was a weird change in personality there with the doc. I mean, first he was absolutely against doing anything that could change the timeline. Then he gave in a little, but it was a matter of life and death and he had thirty years to live with it.
Then Part II comes along, and he's dragging Marty and his girlfriend across time just to help out their future son get out of a spot of trouble. Instead of trying something a little less drastic. Like better parenting.
