Gas vs electric often has been hotly debated on TOTV and is largely a matter of personal preference. With TV's growth though, distance is a factor that needs to be considered.

Some pros and cons...

Gas is louder and um... smells like gas. But it is ultra low maintenance and you can get from one end of TV and back, play 18 holes of golf, drive somewhere else for happy hour and stop at the grocery on the way home maybe two times over on a tank of gas. Do all that once in an electric cart and you'll probably be calling for a tow. You'll need to charge an electric after virtually every use and take care to keep the right level of water in the batteries. Ah, but electric is quiet and odorless. And perhaps you don't plan any longer distance outings than an electric can handle.

Me? I have a Yamaha gas.
