Guess they can’t see gas dripping or wet spot when cart moved? Most only know how to put the key in and turn it.

And that's the way it should be for what they cost.
Dollar per mile, golfcarts are junk, both gas or electric.

Their expensive to maintain and ride like lumber wagons, and steers like a truck.

But you need one to play golf. Not a golfer? Ever driven a truck like a dump truck with a stick shift?

If they wanted insurance to pay for them, they would have just left them on the cart to burn...

Weird that it ended up being an advertisement for Todd Casey Cart Repairs. I wonder if he approved that.?

So quick to jump to conclusions and make up a story. Conclusion jumpers are a sandwich short of a picnic.

Yes, I thought the same thing. The heat really destroyed the bottom of the bags and the grips on the clubs.
