The EZ Go does not have a gas engine, only a small gas powered generator that recharges the batteries. The ad says that it can get 150 miles on a charge. I heard about a guy who took a Ford Think and added a small generator that runs on something other than gasoline. He gets somewhere around 100 miles. I could easily do 60 miles. Here in the Villages. I currently get about 25-30 with my Club Car. If I want to go to Brownwood at night I have to make sure that I haven't gone anywhere else during the day as it's about 11 miles from my house to Brownwood. I don't play golf, but for those who do, if they are playing a course that's 5-6 miles from their house they are going to do 16 miles or so just to play golf. If they want to do some shopping that afternoon and go to a town square or rec center that evening, I can see how they could easily do 50 miles in a day.
