Do most used carts get sold back to the local dealerships?
Does anyone know (as a percentage) the proportion of electric vs. gas carts in The Villages?
Thanks for any insights.

There are gas or ev fans on this site. If you are using a cart just as a mode of transport we will use electric.
But we also play in multiple golf groups At courses that are 60-70 minutes away, plus play of 18holes (exec only short 9). New batteries, no worries, but as they age many of those we play golf with drive their gas cart. 140 minute drive plus golf no worries on new batteries, but the older carts they just don’t trust them.
But as I stated there are strong feelings on gas or electric in TV.
Our oldest gas cart was 2006 still going strong, along with a gas 2016.
