Thanks for your comments but we already use Grandma's and Grandpa's for rentals, in fact Scott is delivering a cart for our use Nov 5th for a short trip. We have rented both but most people have told me to go with gas because of the range. I do not think I would ever need more then 25-30 miles in a day so I think I will go with no smell and less noise.

Jebarte--not disputing your Safeco policy, but it sounds like you have a golf cart policy instead of the required auto insurance for your LSV. Check your policy and make sure you have personal injury protection. If not, you have the wrong policy and may not have the required coverage by law.

We went from Duval to Walnut Grove today for golf, played 9 and then to TGI Fridays for lunch. This included all the detours for the golf trail replacement. We had no problem. In fact we then went to Sonny's for a drink, and then home to Duval. Lost no speed for the uphills on the entire trip. I got my EZ-GO RXV from Town and Country. T&C told me on my last visit that my longest trip was 63 miles between charges. I have never felt like I needed a charge in mid trip. Talk to T&C before buying and drive an EZ-GO RXV. Also save $2000.00 over a gas Yamaha.

Ditto, Tom. I almost always read Russ's posts. He qualifies his statements if he is not sure AND offers a lot of researched information with the links.

I hope to meet him and Tom someday as a newbie to the Village of Buttonwood. This thread will be helpful as we search for our new golf carts.
