How many miles a day do U use your cart
 
This has nothing to do with gas v electric, just how many miles a day on average do U drive.

If you have an odometer it's easy but if not figure it by time/speed etc.

My normal is less than 10 on a round trip. But once a week I go up to 20.

drdodge 06-06-2012 11:42 AM

I go about 40 miles a day

KathieI 06-06-2012 11:56 AM

Sold my cart... never used it,, I'm always tooo late to enjoy a leisurely ride on the golf cart roads...

thistrucksforyou 06-06-2012 12:22 PM

I us mine on average of 20 miles per day when I am there...

thekeithfan 06-06-2012 12:56 PM

Probably 10 miles a day. I use it when I'm late and don't feel like getting into the heavy vehicle traffic in the winter.

Kathie,

I thought every TV household had at least 1 golf cart! I'll bet you're waiting for one with a solar-powered cart top, that can get you 100 miles a day. Yup, that must be it <g>.

Um... not that's an ironic suggestion, Gene. KathieI would probably be the last person in TV who would get a solar powered cart!

Think about it. A solar powered cart needs sunshine. Nighttime is the right time for the incomparable KathieI.

I put about 10-20 miles per day...I like to ride my golf cart:sing::sing::sing:

When you own a golf cart. You purchased it to learn to relax and slow down. Personally I drive it as much as possible everyday. I get to really look around at the world. To see the beauty all around me. To hear the sounds of nature. To smell the flowers and cut grass. I even stop at a bench once in a while just to ponder how lucky I am to be able to slow down and live in such a wonderful place. I get to wave hello to those that pass and they do wave back. I don't know how many miles I drive a day while I look at all the lakes, birds. clouds in the sky. Finally there is no more rush in my life. Count the miles LOL.

ajbrown 06-12-2012 08:17 AM

75 votes and counting. Lets shake the nest one more time....

I put myself in the 10-20 category with bursts into the 40s on crazy and unusual days. Of course on my 12 mile days, 3 - 6 of them are off road south of 466A. Man I will miss that space ....

Maybe KathieI could hang a bright bulb in her garage for daytime charging of her solar-powered golf cart! Then she'd be "charged up" for her nighttime trips. <g>

Our golf cart probably gets between 10-20 miles a day on average, but I only use it to drive up to the postal center to get the mail and walk my pooch. Other members of the household use it for more trips. So, I hit the under 10 option in this poll.

LOL.... I'm a little smarter than that, PT, I would park it outside all day to get charged up for my nighttime agendas... hahahaha...

Truth be told, I am a little leery of driving a cart in the wee hours as I feel more vulnerable in it than in my SUV.

I agree. Would much rather be in a heavier vehicle when the drunks are out and about here in the Villages. There are alot more creatures out at night too like coyotes, owls, possum, etc.
