Think twice. The insurance costs are the same as a new car, $500 to $600 per year, plus the plates. For that price, you get to skip a few tunnels and go through the round a bouts.

I calculate that I save about 5 minutes a week driving an LSV. That "costs" me about $55 per hour for the time I save.

Also, once a vehicle has a VIN, you can never go back to calling it a golf cart. An LSV is forever.
