You do want a windshield if you every think you will use it in rain, cold, etc.

Re: Best buggy for the farm?
AprilV,
If you want to get an electric cart, it is a great advantage to REALLY, REALLY understand how to evaluate and maintain batteries before you buy a cart. There are lots of good articles about that on BGW. I think that an electric cart would serve you well in your application ... I really enjoy the peace and quiet of our electric cart after our previous work vehicle was a two stroke quad! |

Re: Best buggy for the farm?
Sounds like you will use it lightly so maybe a newer RXV is just the ticket. I only suggested an older DS because it can be built to do stuff it was never intended for easily, and my personal dislike for plastic carts. Also an older cart will often have to be rebuilt to perform like a new one. Do keep us posted on what you come up with for choices/deals in your area!

Re: Best buggy for the farm?
Thanks y'all! I greatly appreciate all the info.. being such a newbie. :-) So... where is a good place to learn all about these batteries? Is there a thread I should go to? I am wondering about how to maintain them, what does 6x8 conversion mean and what about solar, is that even an option yet?

Re: Best buggy for the farm?
OH... and about the rain, does that not mix well with electric carts?
