[QUOTE=dhdallas;2271690]Gas cart...a really bad decision but the service people will love you because of all those parts to maintain and replace compared to almost none on electric carts. I have seen countless gas carts broken down along the MMPs but never an electric one. Smelly, noisy, polluting, having to go to a service station for gas...ugh! I can run all day as far as I want in my electric cart, simply plug it in at night and its ready for the next day. No oil to check, fuel tank to top off, no belts, hoses & filters to replace, no finicky injectors or exhaust system..and with my lightweight Lithium batteries my cart weighs half as much as a gas cart. Gas engines are going the way of the dinosaur & the sooner the better.

Let me guess you plug it into a tree every night

I love the shelf up front.
Don’t have self-canceling blinkers, but mine make a nice audible beeping until I turn them off, which is fine..
Speedometer and gas gauge.
I don’t think much of the upgraded seats cause it’s not like I’m going to spend hours driving it cross country.
Cigarette lighter plug in and/or USB plug in for plugging in phone chargers, fans, and warming blanket.

you should look around and see if you can find a cart with either a Sleekline or Curtis cab - much easier than rolling curtains up and down - think rolling down the curtains in an unexpected T-Storm and you kinda have a choice of how much wind blows thru the cart

We ordered ours new, but I’m sure these accessories can be installed on a used cart. Seatbelts are a must! As a bit of a luxury item, we had JBL speakers installed that Bluetooth to our phone, it’s awesome!

For all the Replyers to this thread
 

Really appreciate the advice. Now I’ll be a more informed shopper. ;-) :-)

Exactly …. ROOKIE MOVE to buy from Village golf carts… Many Private Mint carts out there, and on the outskirts of The Villages… another blank check moves to town…

The list was fairly complete - I would add a screen for when you fold your windshield down.

An upgraded cooler, 13 qt that is much better insulated and a shopping bag. I bought both of those later. Cooler from village discount golf carts and the shopping bag on Amazon.

Where can I get self cancelling turn signal

Speedo and seat belts are must haves. An additional light for the front besides the two headlights if you are going to drive in the dark at all. Makes a huge difference.

Don't forget multi colored LED lights on the under carriage! :smiley:

I have a bench seat, I think a bucket seat might be better, but look to those that have them. Overhead shelf is great as the rear basket has its limits especially when playing golf. keep cloths, battery operated speaker up there along with the all important birdie juice cups.

Everyone write their congressperson and ask them to make the change.

Buy from the Villages golf cart. The service alone is worth it. What you save by going somewhere else is not worth the savings.

I don’t want to see anyone in The Villages in a Speedo.
