The range according to dealers is near 60 miles, however, assuming that is true, I remain concerned about the battery life (understanding that batteries just "ain't what they use to be") according to some people that I have talked to.
So, I am wondering if there is anyone who has had actually owned one of these carts and what your experience has been with the cart itself and the life of the batteries.
Thank you!

We picked ours up 10 days ago. Sunday we did a toal of 38 almost consecutive miles and the light came on as we were pulling in the driveway. We were told it will take about 25 charges for the batteries (6 8 volts) to reach peak efficiency and that the range would be 45 to 50 miles on a charge. Like the performance of the AC motor and the braking system. If I needed another electric cart I would buy another based on my experience so far. We dealt with Scot at Advantage in Southern Trace. I liked the fact that they had carts to take home for 24 hours to demo.
