The TV carts are fine. You can also rent an additional cart from them at the Sumter Landing store. The problem I had with them is that they were too slow to keep up on the paths with the other carts and they lacked side curtains for weather. From what I'm told, the speed limit is 19.5 MPH and according to my GPS, they topped out at 14. I rented 2 carts from Scott at Grandpa & Grandma's Village Buggies and thought they were great. Plenty of speed and side curtains, plus their rates are lower than TV's. He also delivered them to my door. It's hard to turn down a freebie, but you might want to get one of his for yourself. His number is: Scott Prince 352-552-8478. Remember, if you go over the speed limit you can get ticketed, and I hear the the fines are pretty stiff, but it's nice to be able to keep up with the flow. Just use common sense and have a ball!!!
