collie, I don't know the true story. Only the previous owners and the repair person do.

The repair person did do a post that I managed to see before it was removed. In it, he stated that when he had posted here he had no intention of moving to TV (not sure I quite buy that one, but whatever). However, when he did move here he placed an ad in the Sun. He was going to place an ad here as well but was banned before he could do so.

The previous owners did a post explaining he was banned much for the reasons you stated.

I don't know what the repair person's true intent was when he posted here or when he moved here. I am suspicious in that it never made sense to me that someone in California would have such an interest in TV and its golf carts unless they were planning to move here and start a business. The comments that there never was an intent to move here just didn't make sense. It never quite jibed to me. There is no question he is very knowledgeable, was extremely helpful when he did post here and does a great job repairing carts. However, I doubt I would ever use him for three reasons: 1) Not totally convinced he is as ethical as he claims; 2) From what I've heard, he is a bit more expensive than most other golf cart repair people in TV; 3) I have a great repair guy who I think walks on water.
