I own a 2010 EZGO electric 4 seater and love it. It has the 4/12 volt battery configuration, which in my opinion gives the least amount of range (approx 35-40 miles). If I had to do it again, I would have it configured with 8/6 volt for better range.I have over 4500 trouble free miles on it.

Right now, The Villages Yamaha dealers are selling their remaining 2012 brand new carts for approx $8400. I think it is a great price considering that the 2013's are approx $1100 higher. The only difference is that the 12's have a carburator and the 13's are fuel injection. The FI models are supposed to get 20% better fuel mileage so figure 40 MPG vs 48 MPG. The $1100 will buy a lifetime of gasoline at 8 MPG less than the FI models.

Just some food for thought.
