I didn't say engines wear out in 10 years, I said I didn't consider engine rebuilds or battery replacement.
It never occurred to me that you could trade in a golf cart. I expected when I was done with it I would hope that I wouldn't have to pay to have it hauled away. We'll find out in ten years or so.
I missed that it wasn't you who posted the picture. My apologies.
This thread is about a golf cart fire. Speculation was that it was caused by lithium batteries. The discussion then devolved into this.
No, I didn't see the "waiting for recycling sign" on the jumbled pile of batteries. This seems like an odd way to store them, out in the weather, jumbled pile, on their side and upside down... but I'm not in the recycling business.

The battery acid has been drained, they bring them in semi loads, they recycle the lead plates in batteries. It very toxic operation. They basically burn the rubber off and plates, all left big pile of lead that has to be broken up. The worker’s enter The smelter in what looks like space suits. They have to be blood test if I remember correctly at least monthly, maybe weekly for blood lead levels.
All the battery recycler’s have big lined slug pond which is highly toxic. I’m would want live within 10 miles of one.
Only certain stats allow them, usually in middle of now where. These states will all most except anything for the jobs. But, iMO will regret it down the road.
