Go to Carts & Clubs in Ocala. They come to your house to service your cart. I saved thousands.

No need to look. We have a 4 year old electric cart for sale with lithium batteries! Not much driven!

I highly recommend using Villages Golf Cars. We were able to get a 500.00 discount after negotiating. That was in 2021 when we bought a 2022 Yamaha.

No deals here, buy elsewhere and have it shipped.

You have a number for him?

I got a free loaner when I brought my cart in to be serviced, and I didn't buy it from them. I bought it from a neighbor, 2 years old.

Villages Golf Carts will service carts that don't come from them. HOWEVER - during snowbird season, they might make you wait a few weeks for your appointment because customers with carts from them, get priority appointments and the season is very busy. They also don't offer towing service for carts that didn't come from them, you'd have to find another way of getting it there.

So that's a down-side, for sure. On the other hand, you don't have to get a cart serviced somewhere other than your own driveway - there are several golf cart mechanics who will come to you.

K. M .

I would be very interested in your cart. Need pics, I'm arriving end of October.

A few years ago, we bought a new or reconditioned golf cart. The dealer was not sure if it s new or not, ugh. Since there s no mileage shown and age on all golf carts, it s not worth to buy a new one...believe most of them are reconditioned and painted well. Maybe you get a better deal from a private owner. No title per FL laws for golf carts! Chas

I'd test drive the EZGO's, they drive and ride much better in my opinion.

I agree with many others. Villages Golf Carts is convenient but you will literally pay thousands more compared to other dealers for it. I could rent a bunch of carts during the time one is being serviced for the price difference.

Another opinion; if you plan to buy gas look at Yamaha. If you want electric look at EZ Go. If you want electric then choose a good lithium battery pack.

Exactly that is working very well for us.

When we bought ours we wanted electric (lithium) but had sticker shock at the price; it's the price of the new (gas) car we bought in 2008 back in MD. The salesperson offered us a used cart, only 1 year old, used only on occasion for lifestyle visits. Saved us a bunch.
If you don't want used, others have suggested outside TV.

Save a lot of money on the purchase of a Yamaha from a factory dealer and have a nice drive through "old" Florida.

Country Power will deliver your cart to your garage and come to your house to service it, all at prices significantly less than The Villages store.

I agree that Todd Casey Golf Cart Repair is a great company to use. I-'ve had them iut to do aome work on two different carts and they were great and knew what they were doing.

DO NOT BUY IN THE BUBBLE - unless you don’t mind paying THOUSANDS more! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
