We'd talked about getting a golf cart for the RV park here.
We discussed it for a couple of years actually, with John strongly in favor
(DUH ----It's got a motor!)
and me not so much. The little exercise I get consists of walking the dog and carrying dirty clothes to the
laundry about 100 yards away.
Well.......
After the knee replacement I couldn't carry the clothes and could barely negotiate the little hill.
We finally agreed a golf cart would be a practical thing to own.
We went down to the local golf cart dealer to check out the selection of pre-owned vehicles.
We didn't need much of a cart; just something for the laundry and driving to the dock.
Something strictly plain Jane.
Utilitarian.
No frills at all.
The dealer showed us what must be the bottom of the golf cart barrel.
He assured us that the cart ran great; he'd replaced the blah de blah
and tuned the do de do.
The price was not what I expected. Hundreds more than I thought it would be.
After all, we were used to the prices in south Texas where golf carts are everywhere.
There are more golf carts in Llano Grande than bicycles and you can get a nice one for a very good price.
You can see what we had to deal with.
It looked like this for a week.
Never leave well enough alone.....

We got our hands on some rattle cans and the next thing we knew...
I was on the 'net looking for decals.
We may have more money in decals than paint.
Above-- a chrome skull and cross bones valve stem cap
with red jeweled eyes ....oooooooh!
Below-- Pretty self explanatory..
If they didn't want a beer opener they shouldn't put cup holders there.
This is our first gas powered golf cart and we are really liking it.
After all, you can really tweek a gasser!
