We just recently purchased an ez-go four forward facing seats. Only about 9 inches longer than our Yamaha two seater. Only issue is the roof is sloped upward from front to back, tunnel near saddlebook is too low for it. After purchase and a few hours in my garage the roof was lowered to fit all tunnels.

Watch out, my insurance company will not insure golf carts with rear facing seats. Too many liabilities

My golf cart insurance does insure a 4 seater with 2 facing back. No Problem. Foremost insurance.

You just called your homeowner insurance company for coverage? We have had umbrella insurance for years. Does that suffice for insurance coverage?

[QUOTE=r_gregory48@att.net;2268589]Quick question. Will a 4-seater golf cart fit in a golf cart garage? I'm pretty sure the model that allows the back seat to fold up fits fine, but I was looking at a 4-seater with a permanent rear seat and elongated roof. Thanks for your time.[/QUOTE


Just curious why the need for a 4-seater. Someone in our family insisted seventeen years ago.
We compromised and bought a Yesteryear Truck model. Back works as seats if needed although looking to the rear. I think we may have used it as a 4-person vehicle five or 6 times.

You've had almost no visitors in 17 years?

We had our 2 seater converted to 4 in the spring and have used it as a 4 seater at least 20 times not to mention using the fold down seat for easy lugging of chairs and groceries.

Measure the depth of you garage and measure the length of the cart you are considering.

That's cute! We usually find our guests like to golf. Find it much more convenient to borrow or rent a cart. Not a lot of interest in just driving around The Villages in a golf cart. If we are going out to eat, more comfort in getting there in one of the cars.

Our 4 seater (forward facing) drives like a bus compared to a two seater. Hard to park in some situations where the front or back sticks out too far. Don't attempt to park in some Golf Cart only parking spots like at the Publix at Spanish Springs. Bull in a China Shop. Takes up a full car spot in our garage. But, for those really special occasions like when the grandkids visit, it is worth all the trouble.

I provided the numbers for a Yamaha forward facing 4 seater off their website. If you say that's wrong, talk to them.
