If you have "range anxiety".......if no odor and quiet are important........if "gas and go" is appealing.......and so on - let these things drive your decision. The 'value' that someone perceives from a relative expensive purchase doesn't always come down to dollars-and-cents.

We just purchased a second cart. We now have one gas (mine) and one electric (Caryl. Caryl's took her car to Sumter Landing for shopping and then went directly to Colony for more shopping. She began with a fully charged vehicle and returned as she was flirting with the red zone. Yes, her batteries are two years old so they are not at the max charge power.
I would not suggest getting an electric if it is your main vehicle. As a backup it is fine.
PS: Not to sabotage this post but "Does anyone know someone who can (electronically) increase the speed on the electric. It goes 21 MPH now but when going up hill the speed drops. If we can get the speed up to 25, she should be able to reach 20 on the steep hills.
