Need Advice and Info on EZGo Cart Purchase...

SimpleMan · 03-13-2011, 05:49 PM

I am looking to buy a golf cart I will use for hunting. This will be my first cart. I have no need for a 4WD (buddy of mine has a modded 2WD and his does fine where we hunt).
I am looking to buy an EZGo model TXTE date code E0105. I assume this cart was built in Jan 2005? It was modded last year by a local outfit. Looks like they lifted it some 4+ inches. Painted oversized wheels with oversized off road tires, added headlights(molded into front clip), camo all over (vinyl kit?), front basket, rear fold down seat with bumper platform, camo cloth seat covers, dual gun holder in floorboard, 1 year old trojan batteries (6).
Is this a good cart to get into? Are there any problems inherit with this model that I need to look out for? What's a fair price?
Thanks for your help and for tolerating a "newbie"...

Since you want this cart for hunting, you want to buy a "series" style cart and not a "sepex" style cart. The location of the F/R control will definr the style of a 2005 cart. If the F/R is under the legs it is a series cart. If the F/R is on the dash by the key it is a sepex cart. Series carts work better in low speed high load conditions.

Thank you. It is a lever between the legs. Other than that, no other issues?
