Your dream golf cart.
 

What would you have if you could have anything in your perfect dream golf cart?

I would have a little more solid side structure (rollbars) in case of tipping. I would like easier to snap and zip curtains for wind relief.

Bigger locked storage?

How about you?

Dream cart
 

Back-up camera!

Wish I had investigated the yesteryear carts before we bought our Yamaha Gas with a Carburetor. I would have loaded it up 4 seats facing front, black on black but since I didn't investigate NOTHING then NOTHING will separate me from our Yamaha. A parachute would be a very nice addition. Just kidding, I'm the one everyone is aggravated at for doing the speed limit. Great question Mrs. Gracie.

Oh, yes. Now that would be great! I hate backing up anymore.

Windshield wipers.

The back up camera they offer is so low it's more of an 'ankle' camera. I passed on getting one for that reason.

Good idea. I back up until I hear glass.

Nitrous oxide..

Radio, heater, A/C, Curtis Cab, window wipers, governor blocking speeds over 20.9, roll bars, etc.

Great idea!!!!!

Re: Windshield wipers
 

Not as simple as it perhaps sounds. The windshield on most of the golf carts are plexiglass-plastic. You can get safety glass replacements and then get a wiper motor.

I was thinking of a gas turbine engine, 0 to 20 in less than 1 second.............
Exhaust great for making smores.....
You get the idea..

I want one that looks like the star ship Enterprise, but the nacelles would have to be in the "up" position so I don't take out passing traffic. Maybe a phaser would be nice too. :1rotfl:

Now that's funny.:clap2:

I like filling my tires with helium. It makes for a smoother ride unless you over-inflate, in which case a stiff breeze will launch you into the tree tops....

Larger mirrors so I can see how my hair looks.

That's why I have a car - lol

Attachment 78092

Roll cage, glass windshield, doors, and an afterburner.

A 4 speed transmission. Really, better brakes.

:1rotfl::clap2:

With speakers blaring out. "Little old lady from Pasadena".

Take it back and tell them it doesn't work. Tell them you are a friend of Gracie the enforcer. ;)

I would think you can have an aftermarket backup camera added.

Yeah! :clap2:

Standard equipment from the factory----Seat belts!!!

Back up Camera
 

New carts have them incorporated into their rear view mirror (the one inside the cart). The camera is in a newly designed "third brake light" on the rear of the cart. The new brake light also has white lights which serve as a backup indicator. I'm not sure if the Brownwood cart store has one on display, but as of a few weeks ago there was one at the LSL location.

12kw lithium battery pack and 0-20 MPH in 2 seconds.

This might work ->FenSens

1. An adjustable driver's seat. I'm short. My foot doesn't reach the pedal all the way so I have to "tiptoe" the gas and brake. Hubby is taller, so adding a block to the pedals would be a real pain in the butt because we'd have to add them and take them off every time "the other" of us is driving that day.
2. Safety glass windshield and wiper.
3. Factory installed seatbelts.
4. A hybrid system that includes electric, gas, and solar panels on the roof.
5. It must be some hideous gaudy shade of orange and purple. Maybe plaid. If I can't have a bend-over lady in my front yard, dammit, I'm gonna make my statement with my golf cart! (just kidding, though orange is a great color for a golf cart I think)
6. Rollover bars.
7. A fog horn.

Orange is chosen by many. And other bright colors. I am glad you are kidding about the bend over lady.

I remember how skeptical I was about this place after seeing how great it appeared to be after seeing it a couple of times. I questioned many of the things that you are questioning and I was met with hostility and negativity, just as you are.

That is because many people who live here all year around and enjoy it are just like many other Americans defending their home town.

There are so few really negative comments that many people will think anyone who is negative is a troll.

What is important to remember is this; we are a true melting pot of geographic culture here. There are people living here from all States and they bring with them their mini cultures and their upbringing and their social attitudes. We are predominantly traditional people and predominantly ...not rich. We are also predominantly law abiding and rule following but that does not mean we are not creative and very talented and interesting. Wait until you hear the musical talent and see the artistic talent we have here.

What I am trying to say is this. You will find friends here who look at things the way you do. They will be exited to join you in your new adventures. You will find friends here who do NOT look at things the way you do. Older people are very wise and have seen just about everything in the five decades plus that most of us are. Older people are often outspoken and often they are the silent and will just leave you alone if they don't like you. You can be either, whatever fits you comfortably. There are lots of us here. Choose your friends and choose your groups. We have tons of room right now in the high season in the classes I attend at Laurel Manor which are at this time a painting class, a craft class and a ceramics class. I try to avoid the more widely attended exercise classes. Not because they are crowded but because I just hate to exercise.

I will look for your orange golf cart.

Another idea for a really interesting golf cart: all white, with van Gogh's Starry Night painted on the hood. Vinework on the frame supports, so that it looks like the painting is beneath a grape arbor. I was going to do something like that with the VW Bus I used to have, back in the mid-80's but it needed too much bodywork and I sunk my extra funds into bondo and sheet metal instead of hiring an artist.

According to my wife the cart I have has to be my dream cart. Because I am not getting another cart anytime in the near future.

4 wheel brakes. Having only rear brakes on the Yahama is almost worthless on wet roads. Applying brakes pitches the weight of the cart on the front wheels and off the rear wheels where the only brakes are, very easy to skid.

I bought from Yamaha a backrest. This moves you forward about 3 to 4 inches to reach the gas and brake but also makes the steering wheel closer and more comfortable to you. It simply hooks over you're regular backrest. If a taller driver needs the cart then remove the back rest and put in the basket behind the seat.

I'll stick with our Yamaha until Ferrari bring out their version.

Gracie, dear, LOL!

I have to have luxury seats. I’d like to have a nice sound system. SILENT self-cancelling turn signals.

If you are a fabricator, I have an idea for a secure area. This does not mean wallets, purses or other valuables.

I’d also like an onboard compass, thermometer, warming or cooling cup holders, cruise control.

That's an excellent alternative, I hadn't even thought of that. First choice still would be an adjustable seat, because with a backrest, it's also moving your thighs further off the edge of the seat and that might feel weird.

Ha, ha.

So true! :bigbow:
