A dead battery (or one that goes from full charge to totally dead in 20 minutes flat) is one of the most common service problems we see here at Go With Garrett's Specialty Vehicles. While we're always happy to help fix up your golf cart or provide you with a new battery, there are a few behaviors you can avoid that will help your batteries last longer.

Go With Garrett's Specialty Vehicles has been in business since 1992, and in that time we've seen plenty of shady golf cart dealerships pop up and disappear, leaving customers stranded with vehicles that need far more in the way of repairs than they bargained for.

The downside to living in a great neighborhood or right along the beach is often that "popping over" to meet friends for dinner or heading out for a dip in the ocean means you still need to pack up the car to drive there, even if the distance is only a mile or two. It can be frustrating to waste the gas and find a parking spot, especially in a smaller neighborhood or when a friend is having a dinner party.

Have you considered picking up a golf cart instead? Here are a few ways a golf cart can help you get around in your neighborhood:

While golf carts are great for getting around your neighborhood, the golf course, down at the beach, or during a family or corporate event, they do have one serious downside — they will, just like any vehicle, eventually need repairs. Don't panic if your golf cart starts having issues — odds are it's going to be one of these common problems that will be fairly easy to have repaired.

Your Golf Cart Won't Start. Let's Take a Look.

Whether you live in a sprawling neighborhood, small community, just outside a thriving downtown area, or right near the beach, picking up a golf cart for getting around quickly and easily without having to waste money on gas for your regular car is a great idea! You can take the family with you wherever you go in a quiet, comfortable vehicle that still gets you where you need to go.

When it comes to buying any vehicle, the phrase, “You get what you pay for,” often seems to ring true. It's easy to believe after hearing it so many times, but sometimes you can still find just what you're looking for without spending an arm and a leg. When it comes to golf carts, there are some situations in which buying new is the right choice — but sometimes a quality preowned golf cart may be perfect for you and your family, saving you money without sacrificing quality.

Buying a golf cart is really just like buying a car. You'll visit the sales lot, look at the different makes and models available, pick out which vehicle fits your lifestyle and needs. There's a helpful salesperson on hand to answer questions you might have, and — most importantly — you have the option to buy your vehicle brand new or to purchase pre-owned.

You may be wondering which of those options is the right one for you. After all, there are very good reasons to buy pre-owned and just as many good reasons to buy new. We have three ways to know if buying your golf cart new is the right choice.
