Carrying a golf cart, or a tow vehicle, or both?

When we bought the BlueBird, it had a motorcycle lift on it. The lift could be reconfigured to carry other things - like a golf cart, or even extra storage boxes (Dwayne's woodworking equipment?). While Jimmy was here at the rally, he noticed how many people had various campground transportation devices (golf carts and the like) and wondered if we wouldn't want to have the lift back on.

As folks were packing up yesterday morning, I happened by where a couple was stowing their golf cart in the back of their small SUV. I didn't get pictures before they started, but they take all the parts that stick up and out off, and the frame of the golf cart actually shortens down. The lady of the couple told me that her requirement was that her husband had to be able to manage it on his own, and that he could - though he had plenty of help here at the end of the rally.

Cart is being dismantled. The couple at it are the owners.

The ramps to get it into the back of the toad - and you can see that it isn't a huge SUV.

At this point, it is compressed in length. The owner is taking the steering wheel off.

It all fits! Mallie was one of the helpers.
