As I mentioned, this is a custom cart built on a club car frame. You might wonder why I did not seek repairs from where it was purchased from. The Villages Discount Golf Cart Man is, in my opinion, the worst buying experience that I have had in my entire life. I will never deal with them again on any issue related to the cart I purchased. Sometimes you learn the hard way and just have to move on....kinda like being a Service Smart customer!
Thanks.....so the short range was a result of the custom build and maybe poor design. I get that. Can't see an advantage for lithium at current price points...not sure there would ever be a payback. 120 mile range isn't an issue since my butt gets tired around 50.
