I rode in one and quickly concluded they are not for me for two reasons, not even considering the gas versus electric debate. First, at 6’1” tall and 195 lbs., I felt claustrophobic inside the tiny cockpit. Second, I felt like it cheated the passengers out of the true golf cart open air experience. If I want features offered in a car, I’ll drive a car, I’m not looking for that experience in a golf cart. And besides, how could I do the man spread and hang my knee out of the cart with that friggin door getting in the way? That being said, I’m seeing more and more of them as time passes, so they obviously fit the needs/desires of some Villagers.
