Availability of Golf Cars
 
Anyone looking for a new golf car lately?
Is the waiting list getting shorter on availability?
How about prices?
Would this be a bad time to buying now that the snowbirds are arriving?

I’m guessing that walking into a golf cart store and talking to a salesperson is just too much effort? After all where will you get more accurate information than here on TOTV.

This is a forum intended to bring friendly people together for discussions. With this in mind what possible reason would you have for thinking you fit into this format?

People asking questions here often have the benefit of getting helpful, additional information over and above the answer to their question, as friendly people relate experiences they've had and knowledge they've learned.

Mean people who jump at the chance to make people feel bad, using sarcasm to answer well meaning forum users are like school yard bullies who never outgrew their need to dominate people they sense are weaker.

bsloan1960,

Thank You, well said.

Unfortunate this site allows this every day.
Best to read what's posted only and don't add anything.

Point taken. But other than his first question no one can accurately answer his questions but the dealer.

I’m helpful when someone asks a real question. Some people start threads for the sake of starting threads. I’m suspicious that a couple of these posters are shills for TOTV to start innocuous threads to get clicks.

That being said, I try to do better going forward.

One thing I have noticed is that golf carts for sale listed on TOTV have been staying for sale longer. A couple months ago it seemed like if they lasted a day or two that was a long time.

Mr. Kenswing, please report to the principal's office.

It really all depends what you want, and what your budget is.

Well said, and thank you.

I wonder if The Villages Golf Cars has discovered that selling refurbs is more profitable right now. I know when I went looking at Village Discount Carts their refurbs were only slightly cheaper buying a new Yamaha at The Villages Golf Cars.

Sorry, my impression is that Kenswing IS trying to be helpful, not sarcastic. I think you really called this one wrong. While we at this forum have various experiences, and I ask for info regularly, the guys in the golfcart store got the precise and correct options and prices.
