I have been looking at the BBB Recoil IS. It has been completely redesigned from the earlier problematic buggies. Battery powered vehicles have more torque at low speed so I figured it would be good in mud. I like not hearing the engine while driving thru the woods. Most of my trips are relatively short so I do not require the range of a gas UTV.

I hope so. I bought my BBB when the owners were in Natchez (company was later sold to EZ-Go).

I had my recall issues after EZ-Go bought BBB. Buggies were "running away" with people. Never heard of any deaths - did hear of broken limbs.

Federal government (Consumer Product Safety Commission) ordered a recall, but EZ-Go never notified owners. If you learned about the recall (I did after mine ran away with me and a client on board), EZ-Go would fix it. Mine was in the shop for 9 months waiting on the required parts. Bought a Beast while my BBB was stuck waiting on parts, and sold the BBB as soon as it was repaired (with full disclosure).
