Default Stylish golf carts

I wonder what TV golfers would think of these golf carts?

I loved the Harley Davidson 3 wheelers.

If these golf carts are electric, I doubt they would have the battery power for a round-trip from Spanish Springs to Brownwood!

I saw a 3-wheel golf cart at LSL a few day ago.

Aren't 3 wheelers prone to easily tipping over?

I would think that the wheel in the middle woud cause additional turf wear.

In the late 80s I worked at a golf course that had a fleet of these beasts. If I recall correctly, they were two stroke engines so we had to mix oil in with the gasoline.
Yes, they did have a tipping problem and the HD sales force would recommend the four wheel version if you had a very hilly golf course.
I don't recall HD Making an electric version.

So did I, on the west side of the square. I had not seen a 3-wheeler in a l-o-n-g time. Kind of reminded me of my dad's 1951 Ford when I was a small kid. Nothing fancy, but it gets you where you're going.

I am reading the replies and thinking what is meant by the subject of the post Stylish golf carts? Everyone seems to know what a stylish golf cart is? except me??

If just dawned on me after reading dkrhardy's post there was a youtube link that was not showing up in my browser 'DOH!'



PS. I then see that Z already explained that. Maybe it will teach me to read all posts before I 'open my mouth'.
