Our first was a used 4 seater electric. It was all we had here for awhile. What I found was it was adequate to go from Belle Aire to 466a and back, but not if I golfed there with a passenger, or if I had it loaded with 2 or 3 other people, which cuts your range considerably, especially coming up out of tunnels with the load. Then there was the long 5 hours or so to recharge back. We do a lot and if we went out for breakfast, golfed, then maybe out in afternoon for a store, and to a town square, it was not a good charging cycle for the lead acid batteries. We moved to Springdale and opted for a new Yamaha quiet gas cart and it is nice to not worry about carrying our charger if we visit family or friends was down south. Kept the electric for when family visits. Electric only let me down two or three times. So I think it depends on your driving.
