jleamont Report post Posted November 19, 2020 Eddie, we have a 2002 Imperial 40PKD. That's a good looking coach! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miniedmo Report post Posted November 19, 2020 Same to you Jleamont, did you install the watts system on yours? Mine really drove terrible until installed the front and rear watts with the crossbars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, the only thing I put on was a Safe T Steer just in case for tire blowouts when my DW would be driving, funny we bought this coach 5/22/2014 and she has yet to drive it beyond moving it around the driveway . While both are Imperials we have different chassis, We do not have the Roadmaster RR8S and no handling issues or concerns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

manholt Report post Posted November 20, 2020 Very hard to beat a Road Master Chassis! Very nice looking coach...How are you carrying the golf cart? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miniedmo Report post Posted November 20, 2020 The roadmaster handles well now after a few additional add-ons. We only carry the golf cart when camping local and we put it on a trailer. I have looked at the golf cart haulers but I think it might create handling issues with the extra weight on the rear end. Do you guys have any experience with using a golf cart hauler without a tag axle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted November 21, 2020 (edited) A gas cart comes in at 647 lbs curb weight, so it's doable...electric cart around 1,00 lbs curb weight, would not recommend it. You could opt for a cricket golf cart and carry it in your toad...we got one on order and will carry it in bed of a Jeep Gladiator, weight 305 lbs.

wildebill308 Report post Posted November 21, 2020 The best setup I have seen was having the cart in the bead of the truck they were towing. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted November 21, 2020 Bill, if you have a PU, then it works! A cricket will fold down and fit in most SUV's, Jeeps and even in coach bay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rossboyer Report post Posted November 22, 2020 Mine would not fit in my Expedition bay, but a friend with a Prevost could put it in one of his bays. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted November 22, 2020 It will fit in mine! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildebill308 Report post Posted November 22, 2020 So you have a King Aire Toy Hauler. That would be interesting. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miniedmo Report post Posted November 23, 2020 We have been looking at the new bronco but may consider a truck just for the fact of being able to haul the golf cart in the bed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
manholt Report post Posted November 23, 2020 Bill, there is a big difference between a regular golf cart and a mini cricket...700+ lbs, one folds down and the other does not, the cricket will fit in back of a CVR. Eddie, that was our choice problem also...we wanted a cart to take with us, but we also enjoy going off the beaten path in the mountains, desert. We have 2 full size golf carts, one here at the ranch and one at the camp in South Texas....normally I tow a Jeep 2 door or a Expedition, I did not want to tow the 1992 beat up ranch truck...So, I bought a Cricket (goggle it) and a Jeep Gladiator about 3 weeks ago! Best of both worlds is what we figured. The cart will fit in my King Aire bay, Expedition or bed of Gladiator! I have found other Brands, Kangacruz and Quickie! The only reason we got Cricket, they have a proven track record and most parts and after market, we can get from any golf cart store! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miniedmo Report post Posted November 23, 2020 I think we are leaning more toward a pickup truck and the full size cart. The full size fits the wide bodies (me) more easily and chose the 72 volt cart for when we are camping in the mountains, it climbs hills like you are on flat ground. I does weight out at around 1200 pounds though like you had mentioned. I would like to look at this carrier (http://www.cruiserlift.com/id77) This seems like it would help support more of the weight so as not to have all of it on the rear end.
