They said the cart has two batteries and when one quits, the other is not far behind. Those ladies said they only had their electric golf cars 2 years when battery quit. So, I'm banking on the Gas Golf Carts.
Joined in 2016 and First post! The 6 year trend continues. Welcome!

If "your 3 women friends" battery "quit" might they have forgotten to charge them? My electric cart (3 years old) gets 65-70 miles per charge (a little less when I use the A/C or heat) . I plug it in maybe once every 5-6 daysl When meter says "low" that's the time. Kinda like running out of gas. Sometimes ya just forget.

Electric vs. gas! Here we go again.
