need suggestions with buying used cart
I am looking to buy a used golf cart and would appreciate any suggestions on good and bad models. The purpose is just getting around our little community...mainly paved roads and rock drives.

Re: need suggestions with buying used cart
Welcome to BGW! Pick a cart from any one of the three major makers, Club Car, Ezgo, or Yamaha... I suggest whichever one is more abundant in your area for ease of parts and service. Get as new a cart as you can afford... and verify the age of the battery pack. Battery packs average 4-5 yrs depending upon use and care.

Re: need suggestions with buying used cart
or even better, buy a gas cart and never worry about replacing $800.00+ worth of batteries again. If they will let you on a gas cart, check the compression before you buy. Make sure everything is straight and rust free (within reason, some surface rust OK). Accessories such as upgraded tire/ wheels, back seat etc add to the value but only if they fit the usage you intend to put the cart to. Good Luck! with your purchase......!
