Default Golf Cart Washing - Where Do You Wash Yours?

Just wondering where everyone washes their golf carts? In your driveway?

Any place in TV where you can pull in and spray wash your cart?

Thanks

Driveway for us. We like water fights.

We don't actually "wash" our carts. I use a spray wax every month or so. The cart never really gets dirty. I use compressed air to blow out the sand and to clean the dirt from the top of the batteries and I may also wipe the battery tops too. The only thing I may use the hose on are the tires and then I use tire black on them.

It takes us only 5-7 minutes to wash our golf cart so we do it in the driveway with the hose. We wipe it off here and there in between washings.

Wash and wax in the driveway. Good exercise, doesn't take long, and fun with water fights. No different than the cars, bike...

Default Just to be safe with my electric

Owning a couple of electric carts, I tend to wash on the lawn. This may be overly cautious if I am just doing a wash, but if there is any chance the battery compartment will get wet, I go to the grass. Diluted acid does not seem to have any effect on the grass, but it can stain the driveway....

If I am washing the battery compartment, I head to the grass for sure….

I wash mine on my neighbors driveway when they are not home. Saves on the water bill.
I used to drive it through the car wash but I had to wear a diving mask and snorkel and friends said it looked funny so I stopped doing that.
Seriously though...I got sprayed driving home at night through Turtle Mound when they were watering and my windshield was down.
Not fun getting soaking wet with recycled water!
AND of course MY driveway.
