I want to know how far you REALLY travel day to day. I don't want guesstimates, I want real world numbers.
The distance from Mulberry Grove Rec Center at the very north of the Villages to Saluki Rec Center at the south is 22 miles, I doubt anyone is making that trip daily. Round trip would be 44 miles.
It would be nice if people got in their cart in the morning, noted the beginning miles, did their average daily trips, then noted the total miles traveled at the end of the day.
I'm guessing most would be surprised that they really don't go as far as they think they do.

The most I've ever done in a day was 52 miles----a rarity but I like a cushion---no different than not letting the gas gauge go below 2 bars. So when an electric cart delivers a reliable 70 miles /charge long term (by that I mean the range isn't down to 30 miles in 3 years and I don't have to replace batteries in 7 years), I'm in---quiet, no fumes---big plus.
