undecided yet, was thinking of "line-x" coverage, as the dealer I bought it from does that. but i'm think'in he's a little steep on that right now! I did see a Camero they did....did the whole car, and it did look good.

No ac, huh?
Back when 4wheelers just came out a friend of mine bought one, said he had done a ROI (Return on investment) compared to using his pickup, figured it would pay for it's self in about 40 years...

You'll like her. What size/brand/ply tire do you need to have a set of 4? I still have access to most all my old tire suppliers. I found a set of 18-9.50x8 tractor tires for the back of the old gals goof cart for $42.00 Each. Sometimes I can still find good prices on this stuff.

will hafta look on tire size when it gits here. this one has the big electric motor on it and they are gonna replace all the batteries with new since the ones in it are 4 years old. took it for a spin, it really gits up and goes, i'd say in the area of 15-20 MPH or so, lots faster than my gasser. my other electric has a smaller motor on it, think i'll puts it on an auction.

You where making me nervous with how fast you can go,but my green one can out run you(not telling how fast). But we must put a noise maker on yours so no sneeking up to pull shenanigans.
Yes way over priced but so easy for gimpy old man to get in and out of, priceless. Besides grandkids love to ride in it. An the cows come to see if I brought any welfare groceries.

my Cub 4x6 will go faster than this too I think, I wanted to have my other EZGO Workhorse fixed (needs a new motor) but a new engine for it is a little over $4000. whew! i'll prolly puts my other electric double seated EZGO on an auction, it is good for just driving around, but can't carry tools or "stuff" on it.

We have an out of state company wanting to take up 500 to 700 acres of good farm land to put solar panels on, then they will sell it to a local electric utility. The thing is that Michigan ranks 47th out of the 48 continual states in available sun shine, which means that it will cost us a lot more for electricity. Why not but these Solar Farms, they are not a farm, a farm produces food, in states where there is lots of sun shine ? To me this is like building huge green houses to grow oranges in Michigan.

Oh Dusty you need to share the misery of having to look at all the beauty of the solar panels. The Snowflakes can come up with million and one reasons to not have them here.
A area near me gets to little rain to grow much(less than 8 inches) other than rats and lizards that are deemed endangered. The enviros fought like craze to keep solar projects from being built there as would disturb the rats and lizards. No people to notice live there and the big transmission line passed by already. Finally passed,but sure took a fight. Oh may get the most sunny days in all the continental US.
