Are others experiencing a similar driving range?
Also curious if this electric cart might be capable of climbing the very steep bridge over Hwy 441?

We own a Star with 8 6 volt Trojan t105's and a Yamaha with 6 8 volt Trojan Ranger 160's. Either can go 30 miles on a 50% discharge or 50 miles with a decent reserve left.
I would avoid the configuration of 6 8 volt Trojan T 875's if you regularly go over 20-25 miles-not enough reserve power.
It's not just a question of range, but also having a system that will maintain 47-48 volts at full throttle for the best performance!
