Moving to AC in December. Flying in with a few suitcases and a small dog. Would you recommend renting or buying an inexpensive car once we arrive? How about a golf cart to rent or buy? Do expats general buy and sell amongst themselves? TIA

Your only option as a visitor is to rent a golf cart. Do on a long term deal and ask around first.

Shop around when you get here and I would go for a rent for a month you will get a good deal. You can rent for a few hours, a day, a week or a month.

Yes, we are planning to rent a golf cart for seven months or more. Got a company recommendation? Are they all Gas or Electric, or are both available?
Thanks, BobbieVeeeee.

I think all hire carts are gas, the best way to go. Buy some cheap plastic ponchos , you'll need them if its raining , Good luck

When we came from England in 2003 there were about 4 cart company now there are so many it is unbelievable.

Wait till you get here do not book things for several months shop around that goes for everything. Travel around the country and see as much as you can before jumping in.

I am ex military British not USA just turned 65 and the wife is from Thailand.

Just take your time.

We have compared prices with many companies, and also checked ratings on-line.
It is a long term rental also.

No I was just wounding what rate you were quoted?

When we came here I was charged BZ$ 1000 a month and then we got one for BZ$800 a month. At the moment it is about US40 a day. Not sure what it is a month. if it is BZ$1000 a month for 7 months it may be cheaper to by one and then sell when you go.
