We also want one to be a four seater for when we have guests/grandkids.
My first thought was to get 2 two-seaters and just loan one to guests when needed but have also decided that it's not all that easy to learn the golf cart trails and rules of the road and would hate to see a guest come to peril. And I don't think I will ever let my grandkids drive them until they're about 18!
Back to Polaris Breeze. We had just about decided on a gas 4 seater Yamaha until we looked at the Polaris. Just loved everything about this cart, including ease of driving, place for cooler or purse or minor shopping, and best of all, the fold-up backseat and footrest. Going to check Consumer Reports, but leaning toward buying this cart in the fall.
It's been about 6 weeks since any updates from anyone - do any owners have anything more to add? Salesperson told us they all come with 10 inch wheels, as do the 4 seater Yamahas as well.

We've had our Polaris for about 6 months now and I love it. Hubby doesn't like it as much as I do, but he doesn't take the cart golfing all that often these days. He walks most of the courses .
It does have a good ride and might I recommend NOT changing the wheels to the others available from the Villages Golf Carts. Those wheels require high profile tires and the ride isn't quite as nice with them.
The cart is a bit slower than our previous cart, a Par Car, but fast enough for my purposes. Having the back seat is great. We were in a scavenger hunt this week and we were able to drive all our team in one cart. Worked out well, we could discuss clues as we drove around. We didn't win, but we sure did have fun being all together.
If you're a shorter person, the cart is wonderful. The driver's seat back moves forward, the windshield split is lower so it's not in your line of sight. They're good looking, too!
Enjoy!
