Regular golf cart costs me $100 per year insurance, no registration fees etc. You say other state fees of $200 per year plus insurance (quoted on this thread at $650 per year) How does tht add up to only $350 per year extra after year one?
Those are the initial fees. I'll have to check if I said "per year". Tags, title, inspection fee are one time + insurance. After year 1 the only diff is the insurance costs which (in my case) would be around $160 vs ~$525 if I do S.L..

FWIW I have full coverage on my "cart" ($500K liability, collision PIP, UM, etc) just like my car or it would be somewhat less.

This is from FL DMV (initial fees):
11. Applicable fees.
a. Inspection fee - $40
b. Title fee - $75.25 to $85.25
c. Plate fee - $28 or plate to transfer
d. Initial Registration Fee - $225 (if applicable)
e. Registration fee varies by weight of vehicle

Either you misunderstood me or I made a typo.
