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.
amen, my batteries are 2.5 years old and I barely can make the trip from Hadley to the regional hospital and back...then the cart is back on the charger and useless to me!
