Its too wide, won't fit in a golf cart garage, which means its too wide for a golf cart path--the only vehicle which has the same foot print as a golf cart is a Smart Car

Obviously, if I'm not able to drive it, I'm not going to rent it.

It's not electric. It uses a Chevrolet 4 cyl. automobile engine.

I've seen at least four different Slingshots in TV in the last couple of years. There was a big story about six months ago I guess in the Wheels Section of the Sun about an owner in the historic side. According to this website link below, Florida does require a motorcycle endorsement. Personally if I were driving a 3 wheelers, I think a Can-Am Spyder would be more fun to ride.

some states do not require a MC license to operate a Sling Shot. Unfotunately Florida is not one of those States. The Do offer a Three wheel only MC license.

As of July 1, Florida will no longer require a motorcycle endorsement...to drive a three-wheeler on the streets.

Big front page article in the paper yesterday on "autocycles." :thumbup:
