There is suppose to be a switch to prevent this, the dealer had disconnected it. She also tripped over the charging cable and broke her arm. We ended up trading it for a gas. She feels better about not getting stranded and not having to mess with the charger. We now have two gas carts and like them both. High speed gears will make a gas cart a lot quiter, so I have installed the H.S. gears in both. Not for the speed but for making it run quiter and get better gas mileage.

427dave… I apologize in advance if you were not joking (or making some of that stuff up), but I have to say that was one of the funniest stories I think I have ever read on TOTV! I’m surprised you didn’t add that she also electrocuted the cat and brought down the entire power grid in the process! Either way, thanks for your post… it was both humorous and helpful as well!
P.S. If your wife ever reads this post you are in deeeeeeep do do!
