We have a gas Yamaha from Carts and Clubs in Ocala. I believe it is noticeably quieter than the gas Yamahas from The Villages Golf Car Store.

Gas vs. electric seems to be almost a religious issue. Test drive both. We looked at both. Here is my summary:

Electric: quieter
Gas: less to fiddle with - just put gas in it, range of almost 250 miles on a tank full

Also, I have noticed there are electric carts that advertise 36 Volt and 48 Volt systems. Which is better? Do the golf courses permit gas carts?

Moving there in October and we are trying to determine that type of cart to buy? Appreciate your suggestions.
