4 years ago I bought a 2011 Star Cart and replaced the batteries with lithium and have been thrilled with the results.

Buy gas only if you need to spend all day driving your cart ... or if you are very old fashioned.
I wonder what the true statistics are about the number of gas vs electric golf carts is in the US. I also wonder about which is the most popular in other countries like in Europe or Australia?
