Talking New thread

Maybe we should start a new thread titled "The smartest thing you can do with an electric cart."

It would only need one posting.

"Get rid of it."

I was told the same about the battery in my new car (3 years ago). The debate about battery vs. gas golf carts has been going on for the 10 years I've lived in TV. I say to each his own.

There is nothing wrong with the factory Yamaha batteries, Id say time for a new mechanic.

So you got blue streak 6 or flathead I take it!

Reminds me of neighbor every time he put gas in his put oil in, but he didn't check the level before or after. He complains to me that it wouldn't start? cause it was hydro locked.
