Default Best option you can get

This is without a doubt is the best option you can get - Both me and wife really like out sleekline but the Curtis cab is also well worth it . As indicated in the quoted response > being able to quickly close a door instead of pulling off to the side to unroll curtains is a real advantage when there is that unexpected rain or you get a chill (Yes even in Fl this happens to some of us). NOT TO MENTION > if you wife doesn't want the wind to blow her hair around. Not a cheap option but we use it a lot. You also should get the windshield with sliders at the bottom for air when you need it.

If your after opinions > I'd really consider lithium electric carts. Long range, quite, no smell, smooth. Pay attention to the current golf cart ads and you will see a clear trend advertising Lithium carts. Auto sales of electrics / hybrids are growing each year and they are the near future. I think they make even more sense in Golf carts since the millage is way more then you will ever need and as safe or safer than gas.
