Towing question
I'm curious what ya'll tow with your carts and what kind of limits there are. I have a 14ft utility trailer (weighs about 1800#) I would like to move around my property and I'm curious how (or if) my cart will tow it before I put a hitch on it!
I have a 2013 Precedent with Alltrax XT500 controller and PQ executioner motor for reference. |

Re: Towing question
Your cart will tow your empty trailer with no issues. You'll even be ok with some additional weight but I wouldn't go crazy.
As means of comparison, I upgraded a 36v EZ Go Shuttle to 48v with a ScottyB beast kit attached to the original 36v motor. I tow my 5 x 8 trailer, loaded with wood, other carts, whatever, with no issue. My shuttle has become the tow truck for the campground it's in. I would say it's close 1500 pounds when loaded. Your set up is better than what I have. You'll be fine. |

Re: Towing question
I agree. I have a PQE and Alltrax 500a and pull my 2800# boat down to the river with no problem. Now if I am going to go with a lot of pulling, I would replace the PQE with a PQ Rhino

Re: Towing question
Great! Thanks guys. I thought I'd be ok. 2800# is impressive!

Towing question
I’ve towed a lot with mine over the years. Usually the heaviest things are pulling other golf carts out of the mud in the yard!
But, mine has pulled a large enclosed trailer and a 16 foot open trailer with my 60” commercial zero turn in it. |
