In the past I've heard some people rule out buying a gas cart because of the slow speed of the lifestyle preview ones provided. Just to mention it if you don't already know, when you buy your own cart most people get one with high-speed rear end that those loaner ones on preview stay don't have. Then the speed maximum is set to 19 or 19.5 mph so you don't get a big fat ticket for speeding and other violations that go with speeding over 20.

As for getting a faster cart during preview, you can ask the TV people who booked your reservation to line you up with a rental one at your cost, that might be faster and have more features. They might be hard to get, though, since they are all rented out this time of year.
