Gas carts have a long range and you can "fill up" at any reachable gas station.

If you were to run out of gas, a friend can bring you a gas can.

If you were to run out of "juice", do you have a friend with a portable generator?

But, both could be towed if needed.

Why electric? Smoother, quicker, quieter, no fumes, no oil changes, belts or tune-ups.
Just a better driving experience vs gas. 60 miles is more than enough for me in a day.
