Regular unleaded? Only thing I use.
(remember when "regular gas" was not ambiguous?)

As per the owner's manual, regular gas with up to 10% ethanol. 2000 hours on the engine and no issues. You will be fine.

I run non-ethanol in my lawnmower and pressure washer since they have carburetors and the gas can sometimes sit for a bit. The golf cart has fuel injection and we run through gas pretty quick. Probably overkill for the lawnmower and pressure washer but no issues to date.

By regular gas I assume you mean 10% ethanol. If you’re full time and use your cart on a regular basis that shouldn’t be a problem. The problem occurs when a cart sits for an extended period unused. The gas in the fuel delivery system eventually evaporates and with ethanol fuel it leaves behind a gummy varnish like deposit that can clog up the fuel delivery system. Problems are much more common with a carburetor, but a fuel injection system can also get effected. Carburetors have very small jets (which are basically holes) that easily get clogged up. I’ve disassembled and cleaned out several gummed up carburetors over the years and hope to never have to do it again.

Guessing you meant 49-52 MPG?

I pump it into mine ! I've never "thrown" gas in my life unless violently passing it counts as throwing it.
