Default Star cart

I've owned one for 5 years and have been pleased with it. Newer gas carts are quieter than former models, but not as quiet as an electric. The downside is laying out $1000 more or less every 4-5 years, depending on how often you drive it. My Star is fast, when I want it to be. (Had it up to 28mph when nobody was looking, with a tailwind.) The only fault with the SST model I own is the area where you latch on your golf bag. It's a little narrower than other models, and full-sized golf bags have to be jammed in there. The dealer's location is not convenient but I use an independent mechanic who does maintenance at my home. Have done so even when cart was still under warranty.

Now, one of my golf buddies has a Tomberlin. It's really sleek and comfortable. It's actually built as a street-legal but he doesn't use it as such. High-priced machine, however.
