If you go to The Villages golf cart store, they have a break down that shows the cost to operate both over 4 years. They compare cost of gas, cost of electricity and batteries, annual maintenance and anything else. Not sure what weekly or monthly mileage they based it on, but am sure they could tell you. What they show is gas was about $34 a month and electric was $46 a month. And now all the pundits will chime in why the Villages information is completely wrong, but I believe they are somewhat accurate. I think they used gas at $4 a gallon if I recall. Next time you go to TV go to the store and ask them if they have that breakdown of operating cost.
