Thoughts on where to go for this, gas or electric, styles, pricing and how long does it take to get one?
Are they registered/insured?

My advice is not to rush out and get a golf cart. You can rent one for awhile while you gather information. We purchased a used gas four seater nine years ago and it still looks nice and works well. We bought it from a couple who's parent had lived with them and had passed. We now have two, but there is no need to rush into buying a golf cart. You will be spending a great deal of time for a couple of months unpacking and feathering your new nest and talking to neighbors and new friends who will give you advice on golf carts. We have ours insured but they are not registered. It is against the law for anyone under the age of fourteen to drive a golf cart, so do not allow little grandchildren to do so. 16 people have died in golf cart accidents in the last ten years here in TV and hundreds have been badly injured, so please know how to use them, and where you are going and please don't drink and drive. You say you don't want a "slug" but you need to know that 20mph is the speed limit and you can get a ticket.
