When it's cold we use our car instead of the golf cart. We don't use our golf cart as much as our car. We just recently purchased a gas cart and we have a Prius which gets better gas mileage than the cart. Prior to getting our new cart I was concerned with the distances travelled in the electric cart but now with a gas cart that "problem" has been solved. We also have a MEEI cabin in our cart and can close the doors when it's cold. However, with the present low temps to be comfortable you would need a coleman heater also.

When we arrived in TV we had 2 cars and purchased one cart. After a few years we thought that maybe we could get rid of one car. We had lent our second car to our son for about a year and during that time we realized that we could get along with just one car. There have been very few times where it would be nice to have 2 cars but not worth the expense.
