It's like a gas gauge on a 40 year old car. Accuracy is not a hallmark.

Actually, he hasn't. He has driven over 4,000 miles on the MMPs here in the Villages and knows that while the cart travels at 20mph in open sections, but those sections always end at a stop sign for a gate crossing or intersection. 60 miles would take a little under three hours on a closed track but not on the Villages MMPs. In the real world, the speed over a long trip in the Villages averages to 15mph.
