I’m not at all surprised. The rest of us got it.

I put stabilizer in the fuel tank, a tender on the battery and fill the tires to 25#.

Do you have the mindset that if someone asked where they could rent a pressure washer to wash their bedroom carpets, would it be better to just blindly answer, or maybe present a follow-up question?

The problem with renting a 10x10 storage unit is that you would most likely have to trailer the cart to/from the storage unit since it’s outside the bubble. When storing the cart make sure it has a full tank of ethanol free gas, put a trickle charger on the battery, and leave the sunbrella enclosure down. If you do those simple things all you should have to do when returning is check/add air to the tires, remove the trickle charger, and roll up the enclosure. You might notice the flat spots that form on the tires from not being used while away, but after driving a mile or so those will smooth out. Good luck

Be careful, you might come back in January and have no golf car. You are much safer with a storage unit except it will get extremely hot in there during the summer months unless you want to pay for a temp. controlled unit but they usually don't have outside access and it won't fit through a walk in door.

No, I'm not of that mindset. I'm of the mindset that I compare apples to apples. If someone says that they need a storage area, it's none of my business why they need it. But then, I have a life and don't spend it sitting on a message board second guessing every sentence that's typed.

This is a problem in society and in TV in general. A homeowner will say they need something that costs over $2000 replaced and people/scammers like you would say "OK" and just do it instead of putting any effort to explore a better option like a $100 repair. Lazy mentality.

I'm trying to help the OP, you're trying to prevent that.

We store ours in our garage year round. Have never had an issue leaving them there.

make sure you have a plan to get the cart to where you are going to store it. Some of these places, it can't be driven
