And the best answer is......................


Wait....................


Coming...................


Here it is......................




One of each. There are pro's and con's to each. Everything from original cost, resale value, ease of maintenance, range, cost to replace batteries, noise, smell, and many many others. I have one of each and enjoy both for different reasons. There is only one con for electric that for me is a game changer and why it would not be my only cart.

If you own and drive an electric cart it's not a matter of if you will be towed home, but when. It will happen. Might be user error, age problem, or many other issues, but at some point you will be towed home. You will not get the plug all the way in the night before, you will forget to add water, leave the lights on, go to far, something, but it will happen. Now all the electric fans will chime in and say "never happened to me", but just wait it will happen.

However I still love my electric cart and drive it often. But I still keep a tow rope in the glove box.
