I researched pricing on the Lithium Battery EZ GO 4.0 model and it was hard to find dealers who sold this model. Villages Golf Carts sold them and 1 year ago for a Villages ready cart they wanted +/- 16k. Advantage golf carts in Orlando might help you but do have a delivery charge. I have a gas powered 2021 Yamaha and it is SMELLY.

First thing you have to change your mindset, there are not golf cart dealership they are just stores that you go in and shop. If you want to finance they will refer you to someone. Buying a golf cart is nothing like buying a car. If you want to get more information you can contact Susan @ 313-492-4439. She sold cars for over 25 years and moved to TV at the end of Dec. 2020. She been working at The Village Discount Golf Cart for 90 days. I found her to be 100% on the up and up and help me to understand how buying a golf cart is nothing like buying a car.

Thanks for your comment. If I understand you correctly, you are saying that buying a golf cart from a dealer is the same as buying an orange at the local grocery store? Each person who buys that same orange at that same store will pay the same price, and there is no need (or ability) to negotiate for price?
That's certainly a different way to look at it! If that's true, then you can just look at the cart & features, look at the price, and choose to either buy it there or go elsewhere to see if you can get a better price for the same cart/features. Kinda like when Saturn dealers came up with the "One Price - No Dicker" concept?

I guess that would make the purchasing process much easier:
1. Go into dealership.
2. Identify the model of cart you want.
3. Identify the features you want.
4. Get a price from the salesperson.
5. Either accept the price or go somewhere else (and repeat these steps).

I've got to admit, you've got me thinking...

Let's see what other folks think. Do you agree (or disagree) with this concept!

Carts and Clubs made us a great deal I thought. Cart has been flawless for over 3500 miles I just over a year. I agree you’ll use it more than you think, go for the best seats that work for you. Welcome to paradise

Thanks for your comments.
Hmmmm, I had to think about it for a few minutes. That’s certainly a different way to look at it.
If I understand you correctly, buying a golf cart is no different than going to your local grocery store, buying an orange off the shelf, taking it to the checkout and paying the advertised price. The same price for every person for that same orange, in the same store on the same day. No matter which self-checkout you use, or which cashier checks you out. No need to negotiate with the produce clerk, or the store manager, or anyone else. The price is the price, and that’s that. Buy it or don’t buy it – only 2 choices.

If true, that certainly would simplify the process of buying a cart:
1. Go to the cart store.
2. Pick out a brand/model of cart.
3. Pick out any accessories you want (or pick a cart that already has all those accessories installed).
4. Find out what the price is.
5. Either accept the price and pay for the cart, or go to a different cart store and repeat these steps.
6. If 20 people walked into the same cart store, on the same day, and all bought the exact same cart with exactly the same accessories, from different salespersons, every one of them would pay the exact same price.

That is simple. It reminds me of when Saturn cars came out and the dealer offered the “One Price – No Haggle” sticker strategy.
I’m curious to know if that has been the type of experience that others in TV have had.
Thanks again for your comment………I have to say that it really made me re-think this whole purchase process!

Avoid 1st Cart rentals. Just read the reviews and you will understand.

We went to all the dealers in and around the Villages. Crazy high prices. So we looked for private sales on Facebook and Nextdoor. We found a private sale on Nextdoor and have a great cart and saved lots of $$. :ho:

The way it works. We look it up on the internet and we call the guy with the lowest price.
Any business must make a profit. So you call the guy with the lowest price and get the run around. Typical, that one was just sold but we have.............. Or you get there and are told the ad is a mistake.

On a car, it is another interesting game. Buy the car for $100 over cost and we will show you the dealer invoice. There is the invoice and then there is true dealer net. On a car it is called, call back, when the car is sold the dealer gets, depending on the car about 6% when it is sold. On a car that you pay 30,000 or so for there is that $100 plus 6% $1800.
