@MikeInNH The article says the 3d car can only go up to 25mph. “The two-seater is made of plastic components and can go up to 25 miles per hour.” ---

top end of 70mph . . . not something I’d feel comfortable with, at least not on any freeway around here 😏 ---

The article in Popular Mechanics quoted 25 mph for the 3D printed car on their cover. ---

I’ve read several articles…yes the prototype can only go up to 25mph…but their future models are said to go up to 70. They aren’t allowed to go on the street yet. ---

Actually some cities are golf cart friendly , cant go on the main road however . EZ GO has an electric hybrid model with a range of around 160 miles ,what I like about the golf carts is that with a little modification you can do some fair off roading with them ,so much more comfortable then the regular 4 wheelers . Lets hear it for the Manx "Purple Potato Chip " pretty good performance with a turbo charged Monza engine . ---

There’s a retirement city in Florida on the Gulf coast where the old folks with money go that’s designed for golf carts. Wish I had money. ---

I hear you, OT11 In 1997, we were 55 and moved into a retirement mobile home park in McAllen. I observed and said, I am not old enough for this park. 18 years later, I am still not old enough. Those who live there climb on tricycle and ride around the park, harassing anyone who does not toe the line in any manner. I got in my car and drove so far 350,000 miles around the US and Mexico (though I am not losing interest in driving far.) I don’t think I will ever be old enough for that park, but that is just a guess. I am only 73, and have never been 80 before ---
