Dave,
EZGO stopped making series drive golf carts in about 2010, not sure of exact cut-off date.

Something else to consider when towing an electric cart, either series or sepex (with switch in Tow) is the towing speed.
The effective final drive ratio for a cart with stock height tires and gears is 16.59:1 and the motor is direct drive, so the motor spins 16.6 time every time the tire rotates once and the motor RPMs add up pretty quickly. Since 6000 RPM is the max RPM for most motors, 26MPH would be the max towing speed.
OF course, the max towing speed for a specific cart will depend on tire height and gear ratio of the specific cart.
