Default Don't be so sure!

Ohioboy drove our 2010 4 seater Club Car Precedent from Sabal Chase to Mulberry and back one afternoon last week, then we drove up and back to the shuttle station in Sumter Landing to pick up my sister and her luggage, then drove to Cane Garden CC (the long way, down to Bonita and then up Bailey Trail, then decided to eat at Mallory after all and drove over from Cane Garden with lights on part of the way, had dinner and then drove back to Sabal Chase (south of the pool on Canal) with lights on. Had 3 people on it after the Mulberry trip. It is a 35 minute cart ride from our house to Mulberry - one way. Not sure of the mileage by golf cart.

We are about 2 miles from Cane Garden, 1 mile (more by golf cart) from LSL and probably less than a mile from Mallory.

The 4 seater has original batteries that are about 1.5 years old. This is our 2nd cart and we don't drive it all the time, but it never gets as good a range as the 2 seater.
