Default Re: golf carts(again)

We basically "inherited" our 2001 (though new looking) electric Club Car from the people we bought our house from (who never used it; it still had the little rubber thingeys on the tires that we've now worn off...), knowing that within a year or so it will need batteries. Meantime it works fine.

We spent about $500 to convert it into a four-seater, and that has worked out well too.

So far range has not been an issue, and we have taken it a couple of good distances. Then again we're not golfers, which likely helps. I have no feelings one way or the other on gas versus electric (other than preferring the quiet of the electric which is not a major issue), but we have the electric and we're pretty content with it.
