Try Googling Polaris Slingshot near The Villages. Call the dealers listed, they might rent them or know who does.

Good idea. I see them for sale everywhere, but I had no idea where to look to rent.
Hubby and I want to make a little vacation weekend to the beach with one.

I am sure you are aware this is a 100% open vehicle; no top; no space to carry much more than a tooth brush.

Think motor cycle like convenience (or not).

They are fun to tool around in....no question about it!!

We pack light lol. It'll be just a duffel bag at our feet.

Google returns several results. The one in Daytona is $250 per day.

Why would anyone rent you a vehicle that you aren't licensed to drive?

I didn't know it was like a motorcycle. I thought it was an electric car.
Obviously, if I'm not able to drive it, I'm not going to rent it.

I wouldn’t have thought about that. Thanks for the info.

I think this vehicle will be fine on most of the Cart Paths :loco: but not so good in the Tunnels or The Golf Cart Bridge. Getting to Fenney will be a snap! :loco:
