40 mph, 50 mile range, what's not to love?
Being a road rage magnet when riding that 40mph, lane-wide rig on any Florida road longer  than a driveway would be one thing not to love.  :laughing4-giggles:  If passive-aggression is your thing though, you'd be exercising it in style, that's for certain.  112350

Especially when poking along in the left lane on 4 lanes. In So. Fl they'll just run over you.

Vespa makes an electric scooter for about $7k, this is not it.  Probably cobbled up after someone forgot to add oil to the gas.

Judging by the cars with Flordia plates up here in the summer, at 40mph you'd be smoking 90% of the cars in the left lane of a four lane "expressway".  Especially the cars where there is no visible operator.

Where you are is where the timorous Floridians go to hide.  :laughing4-giggles: Besides that, many of those plates are on rental vehicles and have no relationship to the operators' home state; furthermore, the those operators are all using burner phones to reserve motel rooms and want to avoid traffic stops by curious LEOs.
