No, we only use it to drive down to the marina and around the neighborhood.

Sometimes, but most of the time it is 4 adults with a couple of kids. It's better when all the adults are seated facing forward and the kids on the back. The other advantage is when I haul 4 and some gear I can fold down the rear seat to haul the gear and still take everyone to the marina.

I had a 2+2 for 7 years and it worked alright, but the 4+2 is better suited to my needs.

I've got some really steep hills that I pull between the Marina and my house which is on top of a hill. The old 48v RXV would run like the wind (for a golf cart) at about 26 mph. It struggled some with the hills. Would pull them, but fully loaded you would start to wonder about 3/4 of the way up. The new 72 v cart is governed at 16 mph, but will do that speed pulling the hill or running on a flat. Acts like the hills don't exist.

It's called Rainbow Chameleon. It turns orange, yellow, green, teal, purple, and fuchsia depending on the direction of the sun. Hard to get it all on video.

Don't ask what it cost, you can't put a price on a woman's happiness.

Remember that Mr. Nauti.
