Used Golf Carts For Sale
By Shrinivas Kanade
You can choose either an electric or gas powered golf cart. The price of a new golf cart ranges from $4,500 to $14,000 plus. A used golf cart would cost you much less. At the time of writing, the price of a used electric golf cart is in the range of $2,000 to $4,000, while a gas powered golf cart can be bought for $2,500 to $4,000. Cost-wise, it is economical to buy a used golf cart. It will help if you have already decided what purpose the golf cart will serve and assist you to zero in on the right kind of golf cart you need.
Gas Powered Golf Cart: If you are going to use the golf cart for hauling cargo, then surely you will need a box for the cargo. The price of the box will be an extra expense on top of the price of the golf cart. Carts powered by diesel or gas engines can be used for heavy-duty loads. The operating range of these carts can be increased with a can or two of petrol or diesel stored in the back of the car. If there's no electric supply at hand, gas or diesel powered carts are the right choice for you. Both are more costly to maintain and operate than an electric golf cart. They are noisy and pollute the environment. A diesel powered golf cart is more economical than a gas powered cart. 4-stroke engines are less noisy, cleaner and more economical than 2-stroke engines. Gas or diesel powered golf carts are not for you, if you want a silent and environment-friendly golf cart. These carts are not the preferred choice of customers. This is an important point to consider, if you are buying the cart with the intention of selling it in the near future. Used gas/diesel powered carts are not easy to find in the resale market. Before buying a used gas powered golf cart, better check on the new models of the same type.
Electric Golf Cart: Golf cart buyers are preferring electric golf carts. Batteries function as the heart of this type of cart. These carts come in 24 volts, 36 volts, 48 volts and 72 volts models. A 48 volts model performs well, in most cases. How much weight an electric golf cart carries, and at what speed, affects the operating range of the cart. Driving through rough terrain, climbing hills with heavy loads will be more taxing on the batteries than
driving on a grass or asphalt road. Try to match your needs to the carts available for resale. Suppose you need more pulling power or speed than the selected cart delivers, then it can be modified. Electric golf carts are easier to modify than gas powered carts, but you will have to spend extra money to do so. Electric golf carts are environment-friendly and less noisy.
You may come to know that a used golf cart is for sale through your personal contacts. Have a look at the vehicle. Try to interact with the owner to know about the condition and performance of the cart. If the vehicle's performance is already known to you, then it will be a deciding factor in your decision to buy it. If you are looking for a used golf cart, then it is a better idea to contact a dealer in used golf carts. The dealer may offer you a renovated golf cart. While renovating a cart, a dealer repairs it to restore it to working condition. Such a vehicle, cleaned and painted, looks almost new. The dealer may offer a seller's warranty to cover you, in case of vehicle malfunction. Or he may offer you a golf cart on an 'as it is' basis without any warranty. Such a vehicle may have a new coat of paint and will be cleaned, though not thoroughly; it could prove to be the cheapest option. On the other hand, it may breakdown often and you could lose money. Choose this option only if you really know about golf carts and its workings and how to maintain them. Test ride the vehicle to get a fair idea of its performance and suitability. It will help you to decide whether the vehicle is compatible with your needs or not.
If you are a golf player, buying a used golf cart will save you a lot of money and legwork. It can be put to other uses as well. Teenagers are using it to commute to college. You can use it to travel short distances and to run errands within the community where you live. When you are playing golf, you are in direct contact with the elements; the sun warming your back, the wind playing with your hair, the green grass under your feet, and the open turf of golf course in front of you. Add another element to this experience, the wheels of your golf cart.
