An Early Spring

This winter was the mildest on record for quite some time!  This mean that golf courses opened very early, more than a month ahead of schedule here in Southern Maine.  This also meant that used golf cart sales spiked in March when normally there are few to no sales.  How does this affect you?  It means that people are already going through the lot and cherry-picking the best cars to buy now. I would not be surprised if I run out of inventory to sell by mid/late summer!

Buying a used golf cart can be like choosing teams in the grade school playground.  The best ones usually get picked first.  We put a 60 day warranty on all of our retail used carts, but the pretty ones tend to go first.  We have already sold 1/2 of the custom painted and lifted carts out of the showroom.  With the pressure from the courses to deliver their fleets early, it may be a little while before we have the free time to build up more "show carts".

Just because you buy a cart now does not mean that it has to be delivered immediately.  We can tag it as sold, run it through the service center and set it aside for you to be delivered in a few weeks at your convenience.  This has been the popular option this Spring.

Don't have time to drop in just to browse?  Many people call or e-mail to tell me what they need and I e-mail photos, specs and prices to them to review at their leisure.  This can save you a lot of time and can help make sure we have what you are looking for in stock.

If you would like a customized cart built up, now is the time to contact us.  That way we can have it all ready to go when the summer hits and you can get to your campground, summer house, etc...  Plan ahead!

Let me know if you have any questions, comments, or ideas!
