Wife loves the look of them, so when it was time to get another one (replacing a Club Car) we looked at them, we went to Bill Bryant and drove one, really nice cart, we looked at the Atomic also, did not wanted a Gasoline cart since our needs do not require them, finally after a lot of comparison and costs of operation, we found a used one that met all our check list items (first was my wife loved the style and the color Orange, we chose (don’t laugh, they are great) a 2014 Tomberlin that had 2200 miles on it. This cart is solid, 48 Volt (yes lead/acid batteries) 3 point seat belts, hydraulic disk brakes on all 4 wheels, 2 speed electric motor, full automotive Windshield with electric wiper, 2 separate glove boxes with locks, 10” oversized tires, full locking trunk, Aluminum Wheels, automotive Type Emergency Brake, built in charger, automatic battery filler, built in smart charger (it read the batteries and charges them according to needs) I purchased it by trading the 1998 Club Car and a few dollars more, I was looking at a $12k to 20k expenditure and ended up saving a lot of money. Had it now for 18 months and I love it even more, next time batteries are due, I will look into Lithium/Ion batteries, but if is not broken, don’t fix it. I am more than impressed with this cart and frankly love it. There are too many carts brands around and all of them have pluses and minuses. There are not that many Tomberlin there as they were sold to Columbia/Par Cart (I think) Like I said before we love ours!!!!!!!!
