Me, I would only buy an electric ParCar. Great range, 5 year warranty, etc. One problem with gas carts is that nearly all gas in this area is at least 10% Ethanol and ethanol deteriorates quickly. That is what causes that horrible smell from gas carts. Just a little STABIL or a similar product would reduce or eliminate the smell. A regular tune-up would help with the noise. Agreed, one could drive a gas cart to Tampa and back and you can tweek them to run 35mph but electrics can go 80 miles on a charge which is several trips from top to bottom of TV and you can talk to your wife without yelling. So, if you don't want to tune your gas cart and buy some fuel stabilizer, please buy an electric.
