Looking to get a golf car to drive around the neighborhood. Don’t want something that looks like it’s from 1975 while at the same time don’t want a mule you’d find at a camp.

Are there small features that you are glad you paid for, on the flipside are there things you paid for accessory-wise that you wish you hadn’t?

Make sure it has enough clearance for some big golf cart nuts

It’s a cart and $3500 for one with a back seat, turn signals, brake lights, rear view...

How many accessories do you need to ride down the street?

Mine is too slow. That’s the only thing I don’t like about it.

ETA it’s perfect for cruising the neighborhood, O just want it to be faster. Currently pressing the wife hard (no pics) to sell the golf cart and get a side by side.

For accessories, I mean like turning signals, seatbelts, stuff like that.

Definitely not talking about LED light bars, under carriage lights, subwoofer sound system.

How often do you have to replace the batteries in a golf cart?

Good batteries and maintaining them are a must. I do appreciate my windshield when it’s cold or raining. Speakers are nice and worth the money if you use the cart for any appreciable time. You wonMt regret spending money on any of these things.

My brother got one custom made from here

I’m pretty sure he paid a ludicrous amount for it

The company is literally named “excessive carts”
