And you'd be right gmcneill!! I know all about gas/electric but I still feel more comfortable with gas as big as the Villages is becoming. We've rented both and I just prefer the gas! No excuses!

Thanks for all your input. We ordered it today and got a lot of the options you specified! Not knowing anything about golf carts I did not feel comfortable "shopping around" for used carts. We got one with the villa we bought and even though we at first thought it only needed new batteries, Ken Spano had to take it in and called back and said it needed another $1200 of work! When we told him we didn't want to put that kind of money in a used cart (for fear that it would be something else after that work was done), he bought the cart from us and we decided to get a new one (like I wanted). He got a good deal and we got rid of it so it was a win win situation for us both. I felt certain we could find a better deal but like the fact that The Villages wants us to stay happy so I figured they might be pretty good about helping us with any problems we might encounter with the cart. We sure like Larry that sold it to us!
