So that's why all the competitors have the front wheels so far back? I figure I can throw some batteries up there and be fine.

And how long do you think those batteries would last, range wise? I have no idea about electricity consumption and battery size.
Also, that Metro limo is hilarious. They didn't even repaint the entire thing, or buff it out for that matter.
