The charging stations at the school used an app similar to apps used in the cities for bike or scooter rentals. It’s called PowerFlex.

If we would ever buy a golf cart, it would be an Atomic/ enclosed .a/c & heat--90 mile range & appears to be the safest

Maybe I'll surprise Momma for her Birthday, it has to be a certain color. I just can't remember which color that was. I think maybe it was white???? Our neighbor just got one and it's beautiful except they Golf and they hate to be opening the door 150 times every 9 holes, they stink at Golf. We'll see. Charging Station at the Square. NEVER GONNA HAPPEN! Last edited by Nucky; 01-29-2020 at 08:03 AM. |

Where do you think that electricity comes from that charges your cart? It is either from a coal/natural gas powered generation plant or nuclear. I doubt there are any hydroelectric pants in Florida. Generating electric power produces pollution. Do some research on how dirty the process is to produce new batteries and to dispose of worn out ones.

If you're not crazy about the idea of street legal golf carts with auto insurance and car tags, and if you can live without the A/C and don't want ordinary, get a Lux. They're sold at Streetrods on CR 101, the same people that sell the fancy old time hot rod golf carts. Best price I've found is at Costco, $16,999 delivered to you.

Have a friend that has an Atomic and loves it however, the range drops drastically when the heat or a/c is used. They still love it but were disappointed with how much was lost, especially with the AC in the summer.

A street legal cart has it's benefits, but mixing with cars has it's downfalls as well. This driver was killed in an Atomic Vehicle.

Another patient at the ear doctor was saying the same thing. They look so cool and I was kinda thinking of trading in old Bessie for one. He said they are disappointing in that the air conditioning doesn't work and they don't go very far.

When you're past 65 it doesn't take much to kill you, a shot to the head when you were 20, that you laughed off can now be fatal--connective tissue & muscle strength is gonzo

Coffeebean, open up the link for The Villages Golf CARS. I've noticed it both ways, Cars & Carts! Who knows?
Golf Maven has an interesting article on the differences. Can't get it to link up. Sorry! Last edited by Nucky; 01-29-2020 at 08:29 AM. Reason: added last line. |

Gas VS Electric Carts
I agree that it is a push on cost and reliability. My objection to gas carts is when I am behind them (especially in tunnels) and have to put up with their stink and noise.

I have never noticed or been bothered by the smell of gas golf carts. Being around people smoking cigarettes or cigars is another story altogether.
