Default Golf cart as a tug...

The Soaring Club of Houston uses four EZGO electrics and have had good results. They are mid 90 to mid 2000 models and all are series type carts. There is an excellent site http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/electric-ezgo/ that gives all sorts of information about carts. I am the golf cart maintenance person and it really helps to have one person in charge. They do take work to maintain and keep running well. The battery fluid level must be checked and filled at least once per month and all connections need to be tightened at the same time. The most important thing to keep the batteries going the longest is to keep the carts on the charger (each cart has a charger) as much as possible during the working day and then to make sure they are fully charged at the end of the day. Our batteries usually last 5 - 6 years.
