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.
