Where did you buy it? I bought my Yamaha at Carts and Clubs in Ocala and it is was much less than that and has the really nice high backed seats and several other goodies.

I don't understand why new golf carts are so expensive. We recently bought a new Yamaha gas engine two seater with upgraded seats and it cost us around $14,500 out the door.

We paid for seat belts, which are a necessity but not usually included. There are no airbags. There is no air conditioner. There are no windshield wipers. There aren't even any doors!

Jenkins Hyundai is advertising 10 Accents for $14,960. They have air conditioning. They have doors. They have radios. They have seat belts. They even have windshield wipers! They're street legal and if you wanted to you could drive one to Alaska and back with no worries.

I just don't see how a little golf cart could cost as much.
