If you go gas Yamaha is a great cart. Cons--The guy behind you will notice a smell, and they are loud you have to pull over to talk on a cell phone, and you have to go to the gas station to get gas. If you go electric drive an EZ-GO RXV, it does not slow going up hills. I have driven mine from Duval to the Lopez area and played 9 exec holes, then into Spanish Springs for dinner and back to Duval, still had a good charge. Cons-- you have to plug it in at night and check the water level in the batteries once a month and change the batteries every 5 or 6 years ($600). Bottom line they are both good, make sure you drive both and compare price then decide which is best for you.
