Humdinger:
With all things mighty and magnificent come the Humdinger. The Humdinger is a Neighborhood Electric Vehicle (NEV). It's actually street legal, and goes to about 20mph for 30 miles on one electrical charge. It's no surprise by the name that the Humdinger looks exactly like a minuature Hummer, even with some Hummer features! The Humdinger has a 2000 lb winch, a CD player, four wheel drive, a brushguard, high ground clearance, a towing package (for golf clubs), and even a carbon fiber dash and carpeting. I use the Humdinger for fun and short trips to town, as well as on the golf course.
The engine is an 11hp electric motor, it has dual rear brakes, self-adjusting Rack & Pinion Steering, a twin I Beam Welded Aluminum Chassis, automotive lighting system, brake lights, horn, rear trunk, offroad tires, rear view mirrors, AS1 safety windshield, seat belts, parking brakes, leaf spring suspension, 4-wheel hydraulic shock absorbers, and a gel coat fiberglass body.
Price as configured? $21,000.00. (Plus tax) Yea, I know, it's nuts.

 From the back
 The back two seats which lift up, and the roll bar
 Between the front and rear seats, storage exists.
 Love the HUMDINGER logo. Shown with the Golf Bag Holder which removes with one cotter pin.
 The seatbelts are under the rear seats in the storage. The seat lifts up and the tailgate drops down as well.
 Chrome wheels? Nuts.
