Title
Carryall Utility Vehicle Purchase
History
The Athletics Division utilizes Kubota utility vehicles to perform a variety of maintenance duties and in support of Village special events.
Staff have identified four utility vehicles that are in need of replacement. These vehicles range in age from 6 to 12 years old. Each was evaluated by the Village's Vehicle and Equipment division in Public Works and deemed in need of replacement. This equipment was formerly used to plow and salt Village sidewalks and paths resulting in heavy wear and tear.
Village staff tested the Carryall 502 gas utility vehicle on site to ensure it fits the Village's and departmental operation needs.
The Carryall is a two-seat utility vehicle with a dump bed that provides reliable support for field maintenance operations. Features a rust-proof, aircraft-grade aluminum frame that resists corrosion, ensuring a longer lifespan. It is equipped with an 800-pound cargo bed capacity and a 1,500-pound towing capacity, allowing it to handle substantial loads. The 14 hp Kohler engine with closed-loop EDI offers strong power, torque, and fuel efficiency. The Carryall 502 delivers consistent and reliable power for hill-climbing an hauling, without performance degradation over the workday.
Each vehicle includes a 3-year power train and frame warranty and a 2-year limited warranty on the vehicle.
Staff have obtained quotes (attached) from Rovelocity Golf Carts of Naperville, Illinois. Rovelocity is the MIdwest authorized Club Car distributor using Omnia contract EV26710-01 (see attached Sole Source form).
Staff seek to purchase four Carryall 502 gas utility carts at a cost of $13,702.70 each for a total purchase of $54,810.80
