Ever since BBB got sold to EZ Go it has been crap.

Actually they were crap before that.

I had a 48 volt electric (I think all of them were, prior to the sale to EZ Go). BBB knew that these buggies would "stampede" (run away without the driver touching the gas pedal), but never contacted owners with a recall notice.

Mine stampeded at a sporting clays shoot with a friend (who was also a very good client) in the passenger seat. The only way I stopped it was by turning off the "ignition" switch and flooring the brake pedal.

When I dropped it off at the nearest EZ Go dealer (in Hammond), there was a big poster on the wall announcing the recall. The dealer knew all about the recall. I'm the one who almost rammed a pine tree at full throttle -- but BBB never sent me a notice.

The dealer in Hammond eventually (5 months later) fixed the cart. In the meantime I bought a 48 volt Beast. Sold the BBB (with full disclosure) as soon as I got it back.

No more BBB's for me. Ever.
