We have a gas and electric cart, we both prefer driving the gas cart,

Hmmm, I certainly see some advantages to a gas cart, especially with range issues, but I would think from a driving perspective an electric would win (quieter, no fumes). Can you elaborate on why you both prefer driving the gas cart - or is it just the extra range that you have with the gas?
