Yamaha or EZGO
I know this is a Yamaha thread, but I'm looking for some honest advice. I currently have a 2016 EZGO 48V RXV, but due to how much thew cart is driven, i'm thinking of switching to a gas cart simply for the longer run time. I've looked at Yamaha and EZGO gas carts online. In my area we only have a Yamaha dealer, so that's all I've been able to drive. I'll be buying a new cart, so my question is; which cart is better? Thanks in advance!

Re: Yamaha or EZGO
The Yamaha name speaks for itself. Both are good but in your case if you don't have a Ezgo dealer near then I think I would buy the Yamaha. You buying a new cart ?

Yes, looking at buying new cart since the electric cart has a limitation of about an hour and forty-five minutes of run time. My 13 year old and her friends run it down so quickly, i'm looking at gas to solve the problem. I want new though, due to the new quieter engines. There's an EZGO dealer about an hour away, but the Yamaha dealer is in the same city. |

Re: Yamaha or EZGO
Maybe this'll help ya out....
We are a Yamaha, and a Ezgo dealer. We dont even stock gas ezgos, the yamaha is that much better. The gas ezgo is about 4x louder, and a "clanging, banging, rattling pile". I would trade-off 2 gas ezgo to get 1 gas yamaha. |

Re: Yamaha or EZGO
Guess I can’t add anything to that - class dismissed.

Re: Yamaha or EZGO
Thanks CG!! Ok, now to the next question...when did the quieter engines come a long? The dealer is offering a "deal" on a 2017 new, never been used, model but they only demo the 2020 models. Apparently this dealer, that has a good reputation, got a hold of some 2017s from another dealer and is trying to sell them for about $7,500 w/ a rear seat, 3" lift, deluxe light kit and front brush guard. Your thoughts???

Re: Yamaha or EZGO
EZGO is the top of the line in my opinion. can't go wrong with RXV.
Best looking too!! |

Re: Yamaha or EZGO
Drive2 was first with Quietech (its actually a bunch of seals, noise padding, and baffles to isolate you from the noise)

Re: Yamaha or EZGO
I own a 2016 and it isn't the new quiet tech but it is still quieter than the EZs and much smoother. I don't like that new Kawasaki. $7500 sounds a bit steep IMO.. Where are you located ?
