Finally got my cart!
It's a 2017 ez-go txt 48v. It's got a 6" lift (I think), 14" wheels, 23" tires. Completely refurbished with some fresh galaxy gray paint, new rear seat, seat covers, electrical, and an extended roof. Had to chop 2 inches off the rear bars for the roof to fit in my garage. It'll do 22mph. Super excited to cruise around the neighborhood, to the pool, and to some local stores.
My neighborhood is "sort of" a golf cart community, meaning people usually don't get hassled for not having their cart registered. We're working on being a golf cart friendly community, but in the meantime I'm rolling the dice on registering it. I got it mostly street legal, so if I do get stoped I'll probably get a warning and then make it legit. All I need is some reflectors, a DOT windshield, and a lighted plate bracket. Mainly I don't want to pay to get it registered and then have to insure it. I'm here to learn all about it and plan on adding some goodies. I'd like a pano mirror, a brush guard for the front, and some lockable glove boxes in the short term. I can get more pictures if anyone wants to see something specific. |

Nice looking unit!
As for the insurance thing, I have my cart (not street legal) insured with limits equal to or more than my cars. The cost is $225\year for it. I don't find that cost to be excessive. |

Re: Finally got my cart!
That’s pretty reasonable, but I live in FL and they screw you sideways with auto insurance. I recall some neighbors saying they pay like $480 a year and up.
