Just something to think about.

Not true for all electric carts. I’m surprised by how many folks in TV are unaware of the improvements in electric carts that have come from use of lithium battery technology. We recently made a 31-mile round trip from our home in Marsh Bend (near Everglades) to Spanish Springs and used a little less than 50% of our battery capacity. 30-minutes of charging will provide an hour of run time, and there’s no battery maintenance or battery fade (and they have an 8-yr warranty). Only downside is initial expense.
