Cargo Caddy for Golf Carts with Fold-down Rear Seats

cargo-caddie-4

One on the most popular accessories for the NON-GOLFING users of golf carts is the fold-down rear seat. With the seat “up,” you carry additional passengers. With the seat “down,” you carry all your goodies up or down that hill to the lake. Only one problem: in the “down” position, you have a flat bed with no sides. Your gear needs to be tied down with straps, ropes or bungee cords, and this is a bit of a pain. A creative fellow saw this problem and invented a great new golf cart accessory: the cargo caddy! This is a moulded plastic box that fits on the folded down seat, fastens down in seconds, and carrys all your gear with no tie-downs! Great idea. See it in detail here.

Auto Dealers Use Golf Carts to Help Customers


Did you ever visit a mega-dealership, with new cars spread out over acres and acres? It can be a very hot, or very cold, and tiresome trek looking for the right vehicle to buy. If you are a dealership sales manager, consider golf carts as a customer service courtesy. Golf carts, either stretched to make a 4-forward people mover, or a regular golf cart with a rear facing seat will whisk your customer areound your lot with ease. It will reduce the time spent per customer to make your salepersons more competitive. With the tough times in the auto business, a good late model used cart can be cost effective. Shouldn't you be going all out for your customer?

Visit the Cunningham Golf Car web site to see examples of these types of people movers.

Horse Farm Helper

This goes to all equestrians. There are so many uses for a golf cart OR small golf-cart style utility vehicle on a horse farm, it’s hard to cover them all. But…try some of these ideas:
 Hauling Hay
 Hauling Feed
 Moving sawdust
 Taking guests to see a horse in the back 40
 Loading up with tools to repair the fences
 taking the string trimmer out to work well away from the barn
 making those dozens of trips from home to barn a little faster
 bringing someone back who has a minor fall
 Loading up with chain saw to cut fallen limbs,
then hauling the limbs to a burn or pickup pile

Neighborhood Electric Vehicles

There are a new category of vehicles, called by various names:
Low-Speed Vehicles
Neighborhood Electric Vehicles
High Speed Golf Carts
Personal Transportation Vehicles

Regardless of the name, the common characteristics include:
Ability to go faster than a golf cart (Some are 19.5MPH, others 25 MPH)
Equiped with headlights, tail lights, turn signals, brake lights, windshield, seat belts, safety reflectors, horn, and sometimes windshield wipers.

Most are 48Volt Battery powered units, similar to a golf cart.
Many come with a DOT VIN (vehicle identification number) that may be used for registration, where local laws permit.

Over 40 states have enacted special legislation for this type of vehicle, but there are a lot of differences in these laws, so it is VERY important to check with state and local authorities to make sure the vehicle you may be considering meets local statutes.
