Owner's Note:
This has been a fun and very reliable vehicle for many Dune,Desert and Cinder trips. I would typically put well over a 100 miles on it in a weekend and would usually come back just needing to be cleaned and the chain adjusted and lubed. After ripping up the hill a few times and parking it always draws a crowd. I have given countless rides to friends and strangers wanting to experience wheelies and running the Hill. Rhinos maybe the in thing right now but they are still no where near as fast as this cart. The lack of reverse is only a minor nuisance once you get used to parking strategically. It can be pushed backwards by one person on pavement or hard packed and by two people in the sand if necessary. I used a reverse gear box on the vehicle I built after this one. It is nice.... but does cost you in power and reliability. Nothing is as simple and efficient as a chain drive.
Reason for Selling:
I built pretty much the same vehicle incorporating a Rhino body. I am putting both up for sale and keeping whichever one is left. If that means I keep this cart.......thats fine with me.
Price as is $17,000
Price with fresh paint, powder coating and chrome $20,000
Lot of money for a Golf Cart? Your forgetting that it is not a golf cart. It just looks like one.
If you have a buddy with a Polaris RZR and want to knock it back into the stone age this is cheap a way to do it with guaranteed results. Consider the price of an RZR, suspension kit, wheels, cage, paint, and some motor mods to just barely beat another one. Or you can smoke it bad and not have add a thing.
At the “Cinders Hills” on Labor Day weekend we took a stock RZR in our camp and picked a long hill that it could just barely climb. Took quite a while to claw its way to the top. This cart went up @ 48 MPH sustained (GPS verified).
Now don’t email me saying I’m a RZR hater. I’m not, there nice vehicles. There just not as fast, that’s all.
