Buying First Cart
Looking for a golf cart for the family for chirstmas. Just join the board and looks like a good site for info. I know it's prefence but which cart would be best to start with? Have looked at cc, and ezgo at local cart shop also looked on craigslist. I would like to get one with lift,wheels,backseat. If looking to mod a little later 48 or 36 volt also would like to have 2006 or up model from what I've seen on lot. The man at the cart shop sold both but said ezgo was cheaper to work on. Looks like from 3900 to 5900 at what I looked at. Any thoughts. Also suggested a gas cart, had an 09 with kaws. 13 hp 4900 no lift or wheels
Thanks |

Re: Buying First Cart
If not in a hurry, you should be able to find a NICE used cart for <$3000 . . . just my opinion . . .

Re: Buying First Cart
for that kind of money you should be able to find a fairly new cart already done with most of the mods................................

Re: Buying First Cart
I agree. I paid 2K for mine without any upgrades and new batteries. $1,800 in upgrades and I have about what you are looking for "Not for Sale".

Re: Buying First Cart
I'm in the same boat. I've been looking for 6 months and I'm ready to pull the trigger. Found a stock 04' CC for $2200 and 2yr old batteries, however I also found a stock 08.5' CC w/ 4yr old batteries for $2200. Which direction should I go? Is there a site that states specifically what changes where made through the years?

Re: Buying First Cart
I was in the same boat as well till about a month ago I found a stock 01 fleet style ezgo txt for 100 bucks with bad batteries then foun a battery warehouse and just bought 6 t105 refurb for 250 ... Now I'm lost on which way to go on the lift mods... But for u if you just have a little patience you can find great deals from people dumping modded carts for around 3Grand all day
Good luck |
