You will be getting a lot of varied opinions on your ?. I am tall and most important thing to me is the accessibility of getting in and out of the cart, particularly when golfing. Yamaha has the best set up for me(taller roof). If you are looking at used Yamaha carts get a Quietech(less noise cart).

A lot of people suggested gas because of the range. We live in the north end and have never driven(and never will) drive a golf cart that would run out of battery power. Electrics are quicker and go up hills better than a gas cart. The Quietech is very close in sound to the electric, but it does smell.

Seeing more and more Lithium powered carts. EZ GO has the best range but is pricey and does have the best brakes in the industry. You do not need to smash down on the brake pedal. In addion in their 2023 models they brake and accelerator pedals are more like a car than a cart.

Good luck.
