Also you need to consider how much you will be using the golf cart and where you are located compared to where you will be travelling to most of the time. If you live in Collier or further south and plan to go to Katie Bells or other places up north, that will be alot that wil be alot of battery drain...should not be a problem with new batteries but they do get old.

After almost 5 years, we replaced out batteries (36 volt) with Battery Boys. The cost was a little over $500. The battery-replacement cost is offset by lower maintenance costs and fuel costs with an electric. Non-biased sales people used to say that overall operating costs are about the same for both types, but with today's higher gas prices, I think that the cost-scales may have tipped in favor of electric.
