Used Golf Cart Buying Guide

A golf cart is a convenient vehicle to have, even if you don’t like golfing. Many people use them as a means of transport for a variety of purposes. Of course, many more people still use them out on the fairway. Either way, a golf cart can be something of a pricey purchase, which is why many buyers opt for used golf carts instead.

Not sure what the fuss is about? Mikey's Motors is your Tennessee used golf cart dealer. Here are some things you’ll want to take into consideration when shopping for the perfect used golf cart.

Benefits

You’ll be able to save hundreds of dollars off the sticker price of a golf cart when you buy it used. This is due to the process of depreciation, which occurs when a new vehicle is driven off the sales lot: immediately, the vehicle sees a steep drop in value. This drop continues through the first year of ownership before evening out. As the buyer of a gently used golf cart, you can save yourself all the money that someone else spent on the model when it was new.

Golf cart technology doesn’t change as much as the technology in a car or other type of vehicle. This means that you may not necessarily even benefit from buying new because you won’t be getting anything outrageously different than you would if you chose a used golf cart instead.

Also, many golf cart owners install their own upgrades and features, and you can benefit from this! Instead of installing a cargo rack or fold-down seat yourself, opt for a used model that already has these features on it.

What to Consider
 

When you start shopping used golf carts, it’s important to have a firm budget in mind. You’ll want to think about the cost of the cart itself as well as insurance, storage needs, maintenance and upgrades. Do your research to figure out what prices are common in your area so you can come up with a realistic budget.

After you’ve found a used golf cart that you like, make sure to get the vehicle’s repair and maintenance history from the prior owner or the dealership. You don’t want to end up with a used golf cart that needs a lot of costly maintenance right off the bat. Save yourself the trouble and know what you’re getting before you plunk down your money. Don’t be afraid to test out the cart and ask the seller questions, too!
