Jim, this photo was taken 5 minutes after I took it off the trailer, and I agree no more Armor-all - all it does is attract dust. Cow manure will will be splatted quicker that you can say ohhh shoot.
Boone, the back bed is pretty stout, it holds me.
MikeMC, the photo was taken in the bright sun the color is fire engine red, and no radio, yet.
California, those are not real ROPS so I can drill them.
Mark 4510, the golf carts are running about 12 to 17 hundred here the accessories can increase the price quickly. The extras on this 96 club car are: Brand new Trojan batteries,new brackets and cables, head and tail lights, brush guard, bed, trailer hitch, 4" lift kit, all terrain tires, and polished aluminum wheels. I got it from a co-workers father who runs a one man shop in Pearland Texas. I first saw some factory reconditioned one year old Club Cars at the New Holland Tractor dealership in Brenham Texas. Their they start at $2995 and extras like mine bring the price to about $4,600. In about a month I'll have a better feeling on how long the batteries stay charged, but so far I like the quietness and the fact that the 15 minute round trip walk to the garden now takes 4 minutes. I also like the fact that I can look at the trees now, instead of at my feet (to avoid stepping on snakes). /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

When good batteries go bad...............HEMI............Just kidding..........or was I ??........... You can get replacement motors and contollers for the elec carts that have hi speed or hi torque depending on your terrain, the stock motors are 2-3 hp, you can get 8 hp 48 volt motors for them that are truely impressive.........I have a friend who builds carts and I drove a souped up elec one he had and I was amazed at the power compared to the ones at the golf course !!

HEMI? I like it!
after a weekend of over hills and over dales the ATV-e (electric) or should I call it the GGC (glorified golf cart) worked flawless. It was a great ANNIVERSARY GIFT THAT WE GAVE EACH OTHER! She loves it, I love it and it is very useful. it really makes moving around the property a joy. It keeps a lot of dirt, dust and sweat out of the truck and it is so much cooler. It is good for those transport jobs that you really don't need the tractor for. The wife loves it because of the quietness and it is super easy to drive. I put it right up there with the things you use every day that are so useful that once you get them you wonder how you ever lived without them (i.e. garage door opener or a microwave).
