I may have a different point of view on this gas vs. electric ....All the gas carts that I have had has a reverse / forward lever below your knees and a little hard to reach....My wife has a muscle problem and can't hardly turn the lever to go the dirction she wishes to go...On an electric cart the lever is a simple rocker switch , usually on the dash area...Very simple for her to reach and use...

If you're going electric, you need 8-6volt batteries. My first electric cart had those and we had no trouble with range, although there was nothing below 466A at that time. But we could travel to Lopez and back and around town without concern about running out of juice. A subsequent cart had 6-8volt batteries and the range was noticeably less. So much so that my spouse was uncomfortable taking it any distance. Part of the problem was the digital charge indicator which was horribly inaccurate, and started flashing even though the batteries were still about 60-70% charged. We had the same problem with our first cart and they changed it out to an analog meter. End of problem. But the second cart would not accommodate an analog meter unless it was mounted as a separate module and that was not desirable.

So we got a gas cart. It's nice to be able to drive all around and not have to constantly check the charge.
