I think the businesses that refurbish used carts like to get them from "up north" versus a warmer southern climate as they'll have less hours on them - probably only used for 7-9 months a year in colder areas versus year around down south.

That's probably true to a lesser extent. I came from Baltimore last summer and the previous winter I played twice a week except from mid December to late February to mid March I skipped. So we were essentially out on the course for about 9 months and this winter they say was even milder. The Virginia courses are a little further south so they would probably get an equal amount if not more use.
When we were visiting the dealer once, a big summer shower poured heavy and we ended up spending about three hours there talking to them. One question I asked was even though the outside looked brand new, how's it under the hood, do you rebuild the engines? He said, when you buy a used car the dealer doesn't rebuild the engine. He does put on new tires and wheels, batteries and the replaceable items but that's where it stops. That's where I had my doubts about buying and then having to deal with a shop that is ten or more miles away from Tamarind Grove and with a shop that could take off for a two week vacation at the worse time. Anyway, they were very nice and that's why I wrote they should check them out.
