3. Cost factor on replacing the batteries
4. Gas units are easier to maintain, last longer, allow you access anywhere as long as you have a gas station which there are plenty.
5. Once you run out by accident or the Electric vehicle is running low, you are in trouble because there are no charging stations on Buena Vista Blvd or Morse Blvd. when you run dry. Also what if you forgot to plug in last night after partying? You now have a dead golf cart.

THANKS! I play golf and I party and have stretched my travels via electric golf cart about as far as I can imagine ever wanting to go in a day or so. Fortunately, my Tomberlin E-Merge has an integrated charger so in the unlikely event I do need an emergency charge all I need is an outlet. Given we are in the friendliest of all communities imaginable I am sure finding a plug-in would be a no-brainer.
No storing gas; no trips to the gas station; no noise, smell, or annoying others. No hesitation off the line!
BTW I have no connection to any cart or service provider in these regards other than being a very satisfied electric cart owner. Tim
