I live in fernandina and bought a used club car DS with six 8 volt batteries that I was told were new Nov 2012. In April I went from Placida Villas in Fernandina to Colony, to LSL Starbucks. Then on to Spanish Springs to the square and golf cart store. From there I went to Brownwood and back home. I drove 18/19 mph. On the last leg to home I could notice a reduction in performance, but I could still maintain 18/19 mph. I'm not sure how good this is for the batteries but I wanted to know how far I could go. I don't see myself ever going further than this, so I'm happy.
