Has anyone used The Villages Discount Golf Cars? What are your experiences?

I saw a video that mentioned a villager that performed mobile service? Is that still a thing? I would hate to buy offsite and then have issues getting the car serviced.

Any advice anyone can offer would be helpful. Still not sure about Gas or Electric. Having to buy a golf car that cost more than many of the cars I have bought in my life is a bit much to handle.

thanks,

I have a gas cart and considered swapping it for an electric one. My concern is the heat here inside and outside the garage. Heat affects lithium batteries and can cause them to not only fail but a fire hazard. So I changed my mind and will stick with my gas cart
