Default Re: Purchasing a new golf cart

Purchasing your new golf cart will come down to gathering as much info as you can and choosing the features that are most important to you. There were many things we liked about the electric carts but at the end of the day we opted for a Yamaha gas cart with the special "drive" feature. We had an excellent experience with Ted Dunlap, owner of Carts & Clubs, Inc. in Ocala, (352-351-2278), for our purchase. He attaches the weather enclosure option to the cart in a great way with well placed snaps and zippers that prevents any rain from blowing in by the lower edge of the windshield. Ted is also in The Villages very often. Our decision to go with the Yahama gas cart was based on Mr. Peachie's affinity for lots of golf and our location in the lovely Duval area. We know the cart will be on the go for long stretches of time and LSL and the future Brownwood are not located out our back door. Mr. Peachie is very happy with our cart decision. We have no experience with the other dealers in the area so this info is just from our perspective.

*By the way, Graciegirl, your "new to you" golf cart sounds great and per your request... no comment on some of the extra equipment! You had me laughing out loud with your description. Sounds like it's a speedy cart so don't let them catch you cruisin' above the limit and I'm sure when it's tweaked to your tastes, you will love your new ride. I'm looking forward to meeting you, someday perhaps coffee on the lanai or Crispers....
