Yeh, our team's old cart was like that too. It was just a really big platform on wheels, so every year we would bolt on the wheel stoppers in a different place. People are lazy.
I don't even know how old that cart was. Last year we used a dolly. This year I made a new one, because we needed the cart to be hollow so we could get at the bottom of our robot to tighten all the bolts. I'm currently making next year's one. All aluminum extrusion, powered by 2 van doors, 20" wheels, 200 watt sound system. And it folds!!! I made it so we can take it to Nats. Sic!
