What makes you believe you WILL need to replace Li batteries? Have you done it?

I MAY need to replace batteries in 10-12 years if I still own the cart. I'm not that sure that I won't want to upgrade by that time.

And if it turns out that I do need to replace the batteries, I'll take the $1,000 I saved on fuel plus whatever I saved on maintenance and buy a battery that will give me twice the range I have now. (though it's far more likely I'll upgrade)
