How This Club Car Tan DS Golf Cart Compares to Newer Options
Compared to the custom lithium builds in this catalog priced from roughly $10,000 to $25,000, this cart is a different category of purchase entirely, a used, lead acid battery cart nearly 40 years old, without a manufacturer warranty. Browse the 2 seater golf carts Washington DC category to compare both types side by side.
Care and Use Notes
Because this cart uses Trojan lead acid batteries rather than lithium, it will need periodic watering, terminal cleaning, and a full charge after each use to avoid deep discharge damage. Trojan Battery’s own care guidance is worth reviewing for owners unfamiliar with flooded lead acid battery upkeep. As with any low speed vehicle intended for public roads, buyers should also confirm their state’s LSV registration requirements, which NHTSA outlines at the federal level.
