Golf Car(t)s

Golf carts are nothing more than any other toy...For a basic used cart that's around 5 yrs old or so, you can expect to spend $1500-2000, depending on condition of the cart and age of the batteries. Add a lift kit, larger wheels and tires, you are talking about another $1000 at least. This isn't including the high amount spent on a custom paint job or new body, new top, radio system and etc. Go to a golf cart shop and look at the price tag of one completely done for the most part and you are easily talking $6000 and higher....You may find some cheaper, but there is not s much detail or upgrades as some others. Just like a man and a hot rod...or a man and his guns...it's a toy...

Most campgrounds that allow them require them to be electric. Many require that they be registered within the state and street legal...many require insurance....many don't require any of that....We bought an old rental from a campground a couple years ago. Spent another $1000 putting a lift, tires and wheels on it. Haven't done anything else to it. The campground requires that you get an annual sticker from them for a small fee and have insurance. WE haven't taken it any where else. We really haven't been anywhere big enough to want to take it or feel like we need it. We use it at home to take our kid to the bus stop and take the dog for a ride (which she loves). It's great for a long night of trick or treating...lol
