My questions are:
1.) Are golf cars used much in Fenney as much as other areas?
2.) I'd like to buy a used, quiet, late model Yamaha gas cart. Are there issues I should be looking for in buying a used cart?

Thanks in advance!
At this time you cannot get to other areas from Fenney and Desoto in a golf cart. It may be three years before that changes.

When we first moved here ten years ago we bought a used gas Yamaha four seater. It was four or five years old. This year we had it worked over for a little over a thousand dollars and it is chugging right along.

We bought it from a couple whose mom had lived with them and then she passed. Hubs is good with accessing things like that and it was a good buy. I think we paid threeK for it back then. Here's a picture of old Nellie.

We have a new gas cart too.
