Can someone show me what the gold cart screen looks like?

It looks just like a plain rectangular house window screen. It locks in to the flaps that hold the windshield closed.

I'm more Colts than Ravens but I don't discriminate ))

Nice cart.

I use the cooler everytime I go to the golf course. 4 or more hours you'll need some drinks and I prefer real ice instead of those cool packs. Of course real ice is going to melt, so that's why I prefer the coolers. If you bring a separate cooler and put it in the basket, it's a little harder to get to and takes away from storage space.

I was a Colts fan for 25 years until 1983, if you're from Indiana then I would expect you would be a Colts fan, but being from Maryland there is no way I can support a team that picked up and moved to another state. I wouldn't care except they should of left the name and colors like Cleveland did, I'm 100% Ravens fan now. I was at the first game in 1996 Ravens/Raiders.

In my opinion seat belts are a must. Most injuries occur when thrown from cart. 😎

Maybe I missed it in previous posts, but the one thing I would certainly advise to have...is a strong interior light(s) that you can turn on & off.

My cart has an AM/FM disc player, but what I find myself using the most is the strong directionally adjustable spot lights...that are attached to the bottom of the music unit.

With the darkness of winter, they are indispensable in finding dropped keys or just wanting to read something quickly.

I realize that there are a plethora of flashlight apps for smart phones, but they are not nearly as easily used and/or as bright...as the two lights inside my cart.

In addition to everything already mentioned I would add:

- Storage space is important, overhead storage shelf helps. Also, a mesh grocery holder that can be attached into the golf bag straps comes in handy.

- Comfortable seats a must, but if you are a tall person like myself be aware the comfortable seats take away some leg and head room.

- Put a small Fenix E01 or E05 LED flashlight on your keychain for night use.

- Keep a cable lock in your sweater basket and run it through the steering wheel and around the roof frame when parking in public places to avoid cart theft.

- Gas carts only for me as I like to drive a lot and never want to worry about a battery charge. Unlike electric, it is rare to see a gas cart being rescued. The exhaust smell never bothers me. The only reason I have a gas cart is that they don't make a diesel.

Most importantly, never use any gas other than the ethanol free gas sold at the Villages Golf Cart stores. It costs a little more but will save you both money and aggravation in the long run. If you must use gas with ethanol, be sure to add a high quality fuel stabilizer with every fill up.

Welcome to the Villages : )

Default 2017 Gas Yamaha exhaust smell inside cart
I have a 30 day old new cart bought for Mom and Dad. Now that it is cooler and the sides are down they keep having exhaust smell inside. I took it back to the Sumter Landing TV shop. They said it was repaired. Their note stated "Glass fibers inside the exhaust came loose and wasn't catching carbon. Reattached and no more fumes are being released". Well it is worst now. Any advice because this making Mom sick in her stomach and Dad very sad and me very mad.

Moral to the story,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Buy Electric, suggest you see AGC Carts near Bonefish Grill. No gas, no fumes, no clutch, no flywheel to deal with.
We have an Ez Go Electric from the Advantage Carts and it is wonderful, about a year now. Whenever you see a gas pump, there is a message there for you.

I have 2 carts, both gas and I have never smelled any gas fumes inside when the sides are down. Never. I would take it back. Something is definitely wrong with it.
