I have 8 -6 volt batteries and can get about 50 to 60 miles per charge. The average person travels 13 miles per day in their golf cart but some people use it for everything, and might consider a gas cart only.
I also purchased a battery minder device to recharge the batteries as it gives a slow charge and desulfates batteries at the same time,. To be used if you travel less than 15 miles per day. If you travel more than 15 miles, the regular charger should be used. I also had a automatic water refill system added, and I found this to be easy to use, without having to take off caps and manually refill the distilled water levels. I check the water level once per month.
I have found after using it for three days, the regular charger should be used as it never really seems to get back to fully charged. JMHO I always make sure if I am going to travel 30 miles or so to have a fully charged battery.
The beauty of an electric is you don't smell fumes and the drawback is you lose velocity when climbing out of tunnels. I love the smell of fresh air.
A lot depends on the distance, you plan to drive.
