Blaspheme? Covet? I've heard of creative writing but that's some creative reading right there.

IMHO there are a lot of nice things to place on a cart. Just watch what goes past the factory specs on your electrical system. Strip light, speedometers, radios etc can at some point tip the balance of your electrical system. Regulators from the factory are meant to charge a basic system.

I’ve read other posts where the system seems “tapped”? Auxiliary chargers, really?

You can enjoy a maintenance free type cart by going more towards “mechanical” items like seats and windows.

Hopefully whatever cart you get you enjoy without becoming a slave to it.

If a gas cart, get a stupid, unique paint job. Nobody will steal your cart if it is readily identifiable.

I'm not so sure about that. I think the bozo thieves will take almost anything. There was very recently (within the last two weeks) a post about a readily identifiable cart that was stolen from a parking lot.

Better than a miserable paint scheme.

There is a known issue with the speedometer/odometer with GPS that runs even when the cart is shut off and drains and kills the battery. We have requested that they remove this speedometer/odometer and replace it with the older model that does not have GPS and shuts off when the cart shuts off.

It took all of 10 posts for the electric zealots to start their preaching. Why does every other cart thread end up like this. Enough already.
