Things to consider:
How long (if ever) until I move here permanently?
Will I allow renters to use my cart? If so, what are the liability issues?
Could I get by with a used cart (substantial savings over new)?
If renters use my cart who will put it into dormancy (stabilizer in gas or batteries cared for so they don't go flat)?
We moved here six months ago and a cart was our first purchase, but we're full time residents. I would look at the timeline for permanent move and make my decision based on that. If it's more than 3 years, I'd rent or possibly buy a used cart. If it's less I'd be tempted to buy. Just remember to get it ready to be dormant for when you're gone each time you leave.
