I like the look of the cart, the 14 inch wheels and low profile tires make it look sportier than the 10 inch fat tires on other carts. However, the ride is rougher. So I would make sure you test drive your cart well and over bumps before you pull the trigger. Test drive some of the carts at Villages Golf Carts for comparison.

You didn't say where you are purchasing your cart from, but we got ours from Villages Discount Golf Carts. Our cart had to go into the shop a few times. They do not have a loaner program. Also, unless their policy has changed, they set the top speed at 20 mph. That is the code in Florida, but other carts will pass you constantly, especially gas, but the electric EZ-Go as well. My friend bought one brand new from the Villages Golf Carts, and it does 22 - 23 mph.

Good luck!
My EZ GO Elite goes 21 and sometimes 22 for a few seconds. I pass some carts and some carts pass me. When considering carts I felt that a proven brand that has been around for over 50 years was preferable to something that is innovative. I bought my cart from Villages Golf Carts and like the idea that I can take it to one of their service centers and get a loaner.
This works for me and is only my opinion.
