Disney is pretty simple, lights and a horn. The rest of florida not so much. It seems every state has different cart standards and some type of registration. Going to use it around the house the most and at the campground at Disney World, anywhere else we will just rent one if we need one. I want to go camping during Christmas time at Disney since it seems everyone decorates. Problem is you have to book a spot a year in advance.

If you go electric go at least 48 volt. Figure 600 to 800 on batteries.

I'm not going electric. We rented a gas cart in Panama city last year and gas is the only way to go. I wouldn't have to worry about them plugging it in at night or the charger getting wet. Plus battery care and replacement. Just easier on me all the way around.

New 2016 Gas Yamaha with no miles. 4 year factory warranty. 6 inch lift. Red and Black body with red and black seats and black and chrome rims. Bluetooth radio, LED lights, the whole nine yards. This thing is super bad.

Because it has never been sold , it's considered a new cart. They are changing out the seats and rims to make it look like the one I showed you so it won't be ready till Friday.
Busy as heck yesterday, boss was very happy with the way I was handling customers.An old lady gave me a hug for us fixing her husbands tractor. They took to a different shop 3 times and they never fixed it right. My lawn tractor should be done by Friday hopefully.

The wife wants to go to Memphis and renew our vows with Elvis.

Sorry to hear about the wife, hope she gets better fast.
The cart is a 2017, I was wrong about the year. I have to go to one place to sign the finance paperwork and another place to pickup the cart. Not exactly sure how I can pull that off and not be out of work for so long. I already have 2 Dr appointments next week.

Ive just ran out of ****s to give really. Im more worried about making the project a good daily, or buying another vehicle, with the down payment of the total and getting a car not a truck. better on gas, better on insurance, could get a 4 door. Something used, not new, I know insurance bases rates of of parts, repair procedures yada yada. This truck was outrageously expensive on insurance because of the scarcity of parts and hard to find parts. It was only made for 5 years. Hell I couldn't even find a hood on ebay when the accident happened.

For damn sure it had full coverage. Lady who signed me up for the policy is also a friend and her husband and I do car repair together. She knows what I have on it and that nothing is also going with the truck. Either way they appraise it, it will be stripped of it all. My insurance coverage is insane, and also keeps me safe if I do get sued.

I have the trailer attached to the Suburban and ready to go get our cart today, boss has no problem letting me go early to pick it up. Just went out and backflushed the pool filter before I left for work. I'm out there with a flashlight and a freaking baby bird landed on my head. Scared the hell out of me.
