As I said before EV's are not lead acid battery powered. They are lithium powered.
I watch this forum daily so I also see whats posted. I challenge you to find me five posts in the thousands of posts, where is somebody who actually owns a lithium ion battery powered golf cart posted something negative about it.......
You do realize, as psychiatrists will tell you, that human nature is almost always unwilling to admit that ANY purchase was a mistake---hence a skewed population of posts.

The only two reasons that my EV posts have been negative (so far) are:

1) They are not ready for prime time --both carts and EVs. Of the two, carts are much closer, and lithium ion for those that will use it less than 25-30 miles/day has arrived. Personally I want more range. EVs have a much longer way to go---I want at least a 500 mile range and would prefer 800

2) There is a subset of EV proponents who out of politeness I will only call uninformed and gullible who have been brainwashed into believing that they are saving the planet by not burning fossil fuels. They give a bad name to those who prefer EVs for the quiet and lack of fumes.
