If you are a year round user , gas is ok. However, with the introduction of E15 fuels be carefull. Long periods of inactivity leads to problems. An earlier post suggested using a fuel treatment. this should be done regularly. Golf carts are not designed to run on these fuels and all ethanol based fuels play hell and havoc with these small engines. Electric poses its own challanges as well. Yes, a battery trickle charger does help. Bottom line is that you must consider how you use the cart and your location to services,etc.
