84 club car da or 95ezgo medalist
Recently acquired a 1984 club car ds and a 95 ezgo medalist, both 36v. The club is a resistor cart, the ezgo is not in as good shape as the club - but not too bad. both carts need batteries. Any suggestions which one to keep? Leaning towards the ezgo because of the newer technology.

Re: 84 club car da or 95ezgo medalist
You really have to figure out what your goals are and see which cart gets you there. I assume that the '84 was cheaper than the EZGO? It should have been pretty inexpensive. What's the condition of the frame? The suspension? Body? Seats?
If you got the CC for cheap, you get a blank canvas. Upgrade to 48v and go wild. The only limiting factor is your credit card. |

Re: 84 club car da or 95ezgo medalist
As of now I知 just wanting to install batteries and have the best cart, I have a Ford think cart that does 25mph. The club cart has a aluminum frame and older resistor motor, the ezgo has a steel frame and newer style electronics. Club car to me looks better quality, anyone owned both? Which did you like the best?

Re: 84 club car da or 95ezgo medalist
I have an old ('86) Club Car DS and a buddy of mine has an EZ-GO. We have found that stuff for my cart is easier to find and better supported than his is (in fairness, his is a gasser). It is my understanding that the DS platform had a 30 year run and many consider it the best cart made.
I lucked out with my DS and have never had any regrets; good luck with your decision! |

Re: 84 club car da or 95ezgo medalist
I don't know what your goal is, but if you want to ride I would go with the Club Car.
Assuming the motor is good, you can replace everything under the seat for about $200. and you probably won't have to do that. |

The more modern carts use a solid state controller to achieve the same thing. They are a bit more efficient when being driven slowly. In my opinion, the Club Car will be running long after the ez go has rusted away. |
