The discussion about how many times someone could make a 27 mile trip in a golf cart is silly. No sane person would waste that much time to prove a point so the entire conversation is a fun theoretical exercise only.

Electric golf carts (and cars) are an excellent option for most Villagers. It's cheap, quiet, fast and fume-less travel. The range of electric vehicles is far more than anyone would typically travel in one shot and way more comfortable.

Conversations about EVs should be between people that own EVs and people that have questions about EVs. When you add in people that think they know EVs (but really hate change) it makes the conversation more about false statements.

Agree, except IMO the masses can’t afford electric vehicle to just drive locally. Until price comes down and trip milage goes only the well off can afford to vehicle to putt around in.
