You hit the nail on the head. What's "loaded" in one place would easily be considered a bare bones golf cart in TV. You need to compare model vs model and all of the add-ons. My 2015 Yamaha used cart came with over $4000 in add-ons. Turn signals, locking glovebox dashboard, and Sunbrella is pretty expensive. Most people posting about getting a new cart for $10k likely have no custom upholstery or any of the add-ons you're likely to expect in a TV Yamaha cart.
