I made a choice ten plus years ago to buy electric. I have never regretted it. My neighbor and friend switched to gas a couple of years ago. His concerns were storage (he's a Snowbird) and range ( he's a "heavy" user). He doesn't regret changing. He really did not know how to prepare his electric cart for storage. He has had problems with his carburetor both storage seasons and I don't think he knows how to store gas cart either.
We play golf on a regular basis and when I ride in his cart I find the noise, vibration, and odor very annoying.
I find my electric cart very easy to maintain. I find the lack of range to be no problem. I can reach any point in TV. Actually I find some points to be too far to ride in a golf cart, power source notwithstanding.
Hope this helps.
