My home is pretty much in the middle of the Villages so gas vs electric is not really germane to where I live. However, if I lived on the ends of TV I would probably opt for gas. My preference is electric because I can get anywhere in TV on one charge. Its easy to just plug in and then go the next day. I have never run out of juice and as another person has posted I believe that 40 miles might be the limit for one charge. (I live about 8 miles from Lopez and that is the furthest course from me.) About 5 months ago I purchased a solar panel for my golf cart roof and I believe that is giving my batteries more life because before I got the panel the battery charging indicator would go down faster. My batteries are over 2 years old. Now it doesn't do that. Nothing extraordinary about the solar panel like giving me 70 miles on a charge but I do notice a difference.
