In my opinion the city of Avon Park is looking at a good method to mount their Code Enforcement Officers. I have been using an electric GEM car for over a year now. It has required absolutely no maintenance. We drive to church and grocery shopping several times a week. We also drive to the bank, the post office and veterinary, but not to the gas station!
