I just don’t understand what mature adults find enjoyable about riding around The Villages in bumpy, smelly and uncomfortable golf carts.

Even my visiting grandchildren, once they got a driver’s license, dropped the golf carts like they were an old toy.

Aside from all that, mine has A/C & heat so your comment does not affect me but I did drive one for a couple months in july/aug and while it ain't like A/C it wasn't that awful. There are a lot more golf carts here than there are people who play golf so I would guess you are in the minority with your opinion.
The above plus.....60 years of driving cars has gotten a bit monotonous - I feel that the MMPs are safer then roads - easier to find parking - with the windshield down brings back memories of being on a motorcycle...etc etc etc
