At least check out their prices before you drop an extra grand or two inside the bubble. |

Just make sure, if you're buying "outside the bubble" to compare "apples to apples"...
Are you comparing a cart with slightly upgraded seats to one with El Tigre seats (much more $$$)? Does it have the same other "bells and whistles" that are pretty much standard when buying from TV or Cars & Clubs"? Some don't care about those things. To others they are very important. My first cart was a used 2013 Yamaha cart (originally purchased from Carts and clubs). It had upgraded seats with arm rests, but the were only "so-so" comfortable. I kept it about 16 months. Then, I bought a used 2017 QuieTech Yamaha with high back El Tigre seats, LED running lights, overhead tray, locking dash (originally sold by TV). MUCH more comfortable, better suspension, quieter. I'm very happy with the upgrade

Country Village Power Equipment - Home
Use Country Village Power, identical carts to the Villages but thousands cheaper. It’s in Webster about 20 minutes outside of the Villages and offers all services along with free delivery. Great staff and service! You will see their ad on Goldwingnut videos.

Carts and Clibs was in business two months ago when they serviced my cart. The Villages has bought them but they are still operating under the Carts and Vlib name.

Even with the upgrade to the larger lithium battery (205ah), it was still $10K less than a comparable Yamaha, Star Ev, Atlas, or Club Car. I find the ride to be better than my previous Yamaha Drive 2, and I have WAY more features: Self cancelling turn signals, adjustable steering column, regenerative braking, built in soundbar, automotive style steering wheel and dashboard display, 3 point automotive seat belts, rear cup holders and grab bars... the list goes on. I'm at 1,500 miles now and will never go back to a Yamaha. |

.......I am NOT sure whether or not an ELECTRIC cart can be "jacked-up" the same way and whether or not it would hurt an ELECTRICAL MOTOR. I will GUESS that electrical can stand abuses better than gas. |

[QUOTE=CURLYSANDY;2331373]Hello all - this will be our 1st time buying a gas golf cart, so I guess need advice from the Retailer. Am I correct in assuming that we will get a better deal going outside TV? If so any recommendations please for a trustworthy dealer who would see us "Greenhorns" coming a mile off.... Thanks[/QUOTE
Consider Country Village Power Equipment in Webster. We bought a golf cart there and although further away, got more for our money. they also have some different options, not available in the villages. |
