Don't get me started on people who use them on the golf courses.

Well . . . I am interested in one done Street Rod and I want it like an old timey pickup. Why? Because I don’t golf and I want it for the place in back, as well as front, to carry my bags from the grocer etc . . . So, I’ll just have to look ridiculous, but I really don’t care.

Too funny....but absolutely true. Nothing novel or original about the concept but I guess when you have a lot of (expletive withheld) money....anything goes

On weekends and holidays you could loan it to the Shriners for the many parades they participate in ...in support of their great work. ;)

Since hardly anyone can actually spot a real Ferrari unless Magnum P.I. is driving it , why not just buy the badge and stick it on your Yamaha? You can grow a big moustache and put a bumper sticker on the back that says "Ask me about a reverse mortgage"! Nobody will know the difference!

I just saved you $10,000. You're welcome!

You’re just killing me (with laughter).

Let me say this to OP, if you are new to TV why not wait a bit and see what you really like? Hubby and I got something almost black because it looked classy, after the first summer we really changed our minds. If you’ve been here awhile, go for it, one life….

I always wanted one that looked like a boat with a bimini top.

I thoroughly enjoy the creativity and uniqueness of the wide variety of golf carts in The Villages. I enjoy seeing them and admiring the work and ideas put into them.

However, like art and Victorian homes, I enjoy looking at them and admiring them, I do not want to paint, I do not want to live in an old Victorian, and I do not want my cart to look like that.

Please don't let the grumps bother you. One of the charms of The Villages is the variety & uniqueness of the golf carts. You might be leading one of the parades that most of us are so proud of.
