Hey y'all, Mechanic Mike here! If you're in the market for a golf cart, you might be wondering whether to go with a Chinese import or an American-made cart. Let me tell you, choosing American-made is like choosing a homemade apple pie over a store-bought one—it's just better in every way. Let's dive into why American-made golf carts, specifically E-Z-GO and Club Car, are the superior choice, and how buying them supports US jobs and the economy.
