We are getting ready to buy 2 carts. What are the pros and cons of different dealers? Thanks

We have two. We have one that is now 18 years old that was used and still perking along fine with good maintenance and repair and we have one purchased new from The Villages. Our resident expert makes the choices about golf carts and I handle world affairs. So far his decisions are doing better than mine.

My cart came with everything except the Sunbrella (spelling) and mirrors. They added the Sunbrella for I think $400 and I put the mirrors on for about $35. I got custom reclining seats with armrests for $800. The Villages charges $1900 for the same seats and they get them from the same place.

Yep, The Villages Golf Carts are convenient and that comes at a cost.

This was my experience. I saved thousands and picked my colors, fabric and options.

My neighbor spent over 16k for his and could've got the same cart with the same options for about 12k.

I have nothing against the Villages selling golf carts and having a large territory that keeps out the competition for the Yamaha carts. They can sell them for whatever they want. They add quality parts to a great cart and I recommend them to anyone not worried about cost over convenience.

I wouldn’t buy new one, IMO you never get you’re money back. There value drops like rock just like new vehicles. Plenty of used ones for sale in classified for at least half price Or more few years old if you can evaluate the condition? Non golfer cart would be better IMO. If not then maybe new better choice?

Buy from The Villages cart stores. Yamaha Factory Warranty. Yamaha Factory wiring, not some kid in the back shop doing a non-factory wiring that has no warranty. Think, would you buy a new car and have a back yard mechanic wire it for you? Of course not! Service in The Villages that you can drive to at 4 locations. We all know "You get what you pay for".
