Default Won't Start A "War" Either, But...

You should consider an E-Z-GO from Town & Country Golf Cars n ext to the Publix in Spanish Springs. Ask for Kyle, the owner. Or BJ, their terrific mechanic will help you as well. They sell either electric or gas carts.

As far as gas or electric is concerned, the electric E-Z-GO's will go a verified 60 miles on a charge. More importantly their RXV models will go up hills just as fast as the go on flat roads. What's best of course is that there's no need to fill the gas tank and no noise or exhaust smell. There's a reason why E-Z-GO is the largest selling golf cart in the world, by a long shot.

Maybe the best advice that Kyle gave me when I was deciding between gas and electric about eight years ago was to note that any kind of cart would do well to average 10 miles an hour while driving around The Villages. Considering the range of the carts he asked, "...are you ever going to spend six hours a day driving in your golf cart?"
