I think the range issue for electric is way overblown. We live at the current southern extremity of TV (near 466A) and have traveled to Lopez, golfed and come back at night and still had close to half a charge left. When you think about it, if a cart gives you a 50 mile range and at an average speed of 15 mph, you would have to be in your cart for over 3 hours of constant driving.

Having to follow behind gas carts is one of the more obnoxious parts about golf cart transportation - akin to the old days of eating in restaurants next to a smoker.
