noise and smell stuff is not an issue if you have no concern for the environment or the folks behind you.

to say someone "wouldn't be able to depend on the power to get back home" holds true for a car you drive, it's called a gauge.

The Villages Florida

when you hit a pre-determined voltage you need to know how far you can go until you need a charge.

Like driving your car and the low fuel light comes on.

2 seat v 4 seat in elec makes little difference never heard that.

The average in the posts here are about 40-45 miles, 60 with a bigger battery pac.

Solar is expected never to need a plug in charge and run 65-75 miles.

As some of you know I've been working on this project and expect to move forward later this year.

As far as brand I like the Club Cars because of their aluminum frame (lighter) all others are steel (rust) later on.
