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.

There are two main power options to choose from when it comes to personal or commercial golf carts: gasoline-powered or electric. Some of our customers come in firmly believing that gasoline-powered golf carts are more powerful or that electric carts are always more expensive to maintain. We’d like to clear up the most common misconceptions and hopefully help you feel more comfortable deciding which option is right for you.

While most people only think of one kind of vehicle when they think of a golf cart, there’s actually a lot of variations made for every lifestyle! Carts come in various shapes and sizes, suited to all kinds of personal requirements.

Looking for a golf cart but not sure which type is right for you?

When deciding which golf cart is right for you, consider what you will be using the cart for. Do you plan to use it for the neighborhood, golf course, commercial, or off-road use? This will help you choose the right cart type for your needs.
