I would question whether the in-laws heard correctly, and if they did, what was the salesman's understanding of golf cart speed. Every time I bring in my cart for yearly service (at Villages Carts, Brownwood) they have checked to make sure it can't EXCEED 20 mph.
My sister and brother-in-law purchased their gas Yamaha carts at Carts and Clubs BECAUSE they were told the speed would be set at 24 mph. They get their carts serviced by Carts and Clubs too. They don't have to worry about signing a waiver that their cart top speed is 20 mph.
