If so, I do not see the point of paying extra for that.
Yes, maximum speed limit is supposed to be 25 mph. They can and are frequently faster than that.

The advantages to owning one now are that you can avoid going out of your way to get to a tunnel and you can legally cross 441 and 466. When they first were made legal, there was a nice tax break for purchasing one. However, registration and insurance have caused many to change their LSVs to regular carts.
