The availability of the bucket seats (really comfortable) which we bought and the convertable rear seats, which we have yet to buy, made the Star best for our needs. Right now we have no need for two more seats but we have two sets of friends seriously considering moving here (they both retired recently) and if they come down here to live we will get the extra seats.
What I like about the convertable rear seats, if I recall correctly, is that they do not add length which is what I dislike about a convential four seater.
Service has been prompt and great and the cart is quiet. rides well, has seat belts which we like, and so far I have never been past the halfway mark on the power gauge after a week. Right now I charge mine once a week but I could go two weeks between charges if I had to most weeks. My wife is not crazy about the cart as she says it takes too long to get places. I agree but for me it is all about driving slow and enjoying the view. Perhaps since she spends more time as a passenger in our car than I do and therefore gets to look at the passing scenery, she only views the cart as transporation, but for me it allows me to look around and see many things I do not see when I am concentrating on driving a car.
